What to Buy
 
What to buy

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thinking of getting Nikon D90, budget of about £1300 what should I buy.Don't need bags or Tripods have these already,also have a 500mm mirror lens ,i think it is 42mm screw had a t mount adapter for canon 400d so could i change adapter for nikon one.Like to photograph wildlife ,fishing and grandchildren .Any advice welcome.
My thoughts are

Nikon D90 with 18 - 105 kit lens
Nikon 70 - 300 vr
Nikon 50mm f1.8
Cards

Many thanks

Should be fine to get you back into photography and should easily last you a good few years.

if you look around you might be able to pick up a D7000 with those lens just a thought

Did think about D7000 but can't find any deals near to my budget of £1300 that include the three lenses and sd card.

Thanks anyway for your time

Looks like a decent set up to me. I'd rather have the 35mm f/1.8 over the 50mm f/1.8 on an APS-C camera but thats all I'd change...

What about Nikon D7000 with 50mm F/1.8 +Tamron 28-300mm XR VC +cards would this be ok for the next year ,will save for other lenses shooting wildlife and indoor ,landscapes and when I'm carp fishing
