Add in a compact flash card (2Gb) at $150

And the budget is busted!

And as I understand it, things are even more expensive in GB than here in the States.

Go for a used camera body and there will be enough money left over for a lens cleaning cloth or maybe a spare lens cap.
Don't know about all that, just know that in the U.K. £800 will buy you a new dslr and a decent wide lens to go in front
