The Nikon D40 or D40x are great, light, full enough featured cameras perfect for a beginner.
Since they are no longer produced, when you find a new one it will be way under budget.
A quality used one with a guarantee even cheaper.
And if you want their current replacement, the D60, that can be had for £400.
Lots of people here are saying D40 and for a good reason.
You can grow into it if you're adventurous, or just point and shoot and still take superb photos.
It's just what you need.
