Goodness, you've had a lot going on!

But I must say, you're looking well on it.

I'm sure I've asked you this question before, so apologies. My excuse now is that I do have the money for it sitting on one side! I'm thinking of buying a camera and I wondered what your suggestions would be? I'm a starter photographer who would like a bit more control over pictures. I will need to take some close ups of work, often knitting with fine detail, for my art portfolio, but other than that I guess my needs are generalist.
