I'm from Dublin, and heading over to London in a month, and hope to get a cheap D-SLR camera, possibly canon EOS 400D - 500D, would like to know where maybe does second hand, and who are the cheapest.
Thanks a mill!

There are loads but if you're after an EOS 400D or 500D try one of these:

London Camera Exchange, The Strand, nr Covent Garden
York Cameras, nr the British Museum
Jacobs, New Oxford Street, nr Tottenham Court Road
Camera World, just off Oxford Street

Plus there are two or three along Tottenham Court Road.

I would always recommend London Camera Exchange have a look at www.lcegroup.co.uk under the Strand store and you'll get a list of what they currently have in stock.

Spectrum on Tottenham Court Road are a great bunch of guys - very helpful when I was looking at a Pentax K-x.

Camera World were the cheapest online price for a new K-x, not sure how they'd work out for Canon, but I'd guess it'd also be a good price.

Seriously though, have an ask around to see if you know anyone travelling to New York soon...the K-x is £240 off UK list price there in the big camera shops...cameras are *so* much cheaper in the States.
