First time I've posted on photography & Video but read with interest many of the topics, so hello to all 
Have been using a Sony DSC-T1 for some time now, which is a handy camera for carrying with you should an interesting shot present itself.
I am, however, looking for something a bit more serious with which to start snapping. I've got a few bob to spend so what would anyone recommend?

Welcome Wizz
If you have no lenses, then I think the way to go is either Canon or Nikon DSLR. £700 buys a very nice Nikon D70 with zoom lens.
There are others that would suggest a Canon for similar money. I suggest you hold them both to your face and decide which you prefer - for both are fine machines.

Well a Nikon D70 of course
406 - another Clud certificate here if you please!
Thanks guys.
Have always held a fascination with what makes a good shot and the different ways in which they can be achieved. Using light, camera angle, focus etc. So after seeing some of Mrs Fish's shots the other day when she went out and about on a walk (nice work Mrs Fish, & congrats on the new arrival BTW
) I have decided to start taking things a bit more seriously.
My DSC is a great little tool for spur of the moment shots but you can't manually adjust the focus on it. You know the shots where either the fore ground or background, or an object in it, is just out of focus and balances the rest of the image. I love those type of shots
Will look at your recommendations guys and hope to start contributing to the theme & competition threads very soon.
Thanks again.
