Usually get stuff like that on ebay:

Might also be worth looking at the Fuji's, such as the S2 - they take your Nik lenses and i think the S2 was based on the Nikon N80 (?) body.

 

Should be able to pick one up as cheap as cheaps on ebay

Gaza read the Fuji reviews and recent (S3) media coverage carefully. The S2 was a great piece of kit when it first hit the market, but its slow my modern standards, and large by any standard. Still takes a great picture, but I have seen it described in the past 6 months as a 'studio camera'? As I say, good pictures, innovative, but early new/old!!! technology luring me thinks???? You must decide, it will certainly be well priced.

 

I have looked at the same scenario, ended up with a D70s, suits my needs as an amature displaying most of my pics on the computer or printing to A4. I will be putting my trust in some new quality glass very soon, making the best of Nikon D70s technology, best body technology in the world is useless if poor glass is in front of it!
