In conclusion, then, the S9000 is a camera that promises much, and for the most part delivers on that promise. I think it's stretching credulity a little to suggest it's a direct competitor for an entry-level SLR system, but for many users the image quality differences will be marginal compared to the appeal of live preview and so on. Good, very good in fact; not perfect, but then what camera is?

Having read through it all, and not just the conclusion I'm starting to have doubts whether I really should go DSLR...

depends how much you want to spend. you can get a 70-300 zoom for under £200 plus your kit lens which should ogive youa good range. The KD5 has IS on the sensor so makes all lenses IS so you don;t pay a premiu, for stablisation. current mag fav is the D50 with the KD5 behind it.

Both the Konica 5D and the Nikon D50 seem to be at the same pricerange as the 350D, so it all comes down to which have the better spec...

Been looking at a kit with 350D EF-S 18-55 + EF 55-200 at about 770£ which seems a reasonable price! Will this give me a wide enough range to start playing around a bit or will i need more equipment?
(besides memory and tripod obviously)

yes it would.

things you'll need

memory cards
protective filter for lenses (UV or skylight Hoya HMC pro)
tripod
spare batteries

eventually external flash canon 430ex or nikon sb-600 if you buy a 350 or D50
