I'm considering starting a mild obsession with photography, in an inexpensive way. I just keep seeing things that'd make fucking great photos. Anyhoo, can yez spill any advice on what to buy? T'would be much appreciated.

i'd go secondhand for an intro to cheap film SLRs. an OM1 would set you back about 200 quid and cannot be faulted.
Oh and join a liberry and read as many photo books as possible. Sounds boring but it can be class. john hedgecoe's new photography manual is probably my favourite, covers pretty much everything you could think of. People swear by the ansel adams books, though i've never got around to reading them.
my OM4Ti was a hand me down. my OM1 i had to pay for...OM1's cost HOW much? I thought they were free! (As in, that's where I got mine. Hand me downs are great).
There's a possibility of a hand-me-down film camera, it'd be shite but it'd give me an idea of what it's like.
No matter the film camera you get, it will probably have better quality than most digital cameras.
It really depends on the lens.
