If he is just starting out, you could look at entry level cameras, like the Sony A200, they have dropped a lot in price and should be available for around £155.00 I think thats around $240.00 and second hand a bit less. A good camera to learn on
you would be better to save up for this rather than spend before you have it. by the time you pay interest on what you want it will have cost you twice as much.
On another note.
Cameras are very specific. If he is already into it a bit, I would make sure he is part of the selection process, or the odds are you will not get what he would desire from a camera.
It took me over 6 months to choose mine and I would not have been happy if I had got a different one as a gift, I know that sounds pretty selfish, but it would be like buying him a nintendo wii when he wanted an Xbox360. and that would be a shame after all your good intentions.

You're reading I am now on a tight budget, but want to get my boyfriend a professional digital camera for Christmas. Should I charge it to my credit card and hope for a good tax refund to pay it back?
