Great Digital SLR
SLR cameras nikon I purchased this nikon d40 camera for myself last year. I had hinted to santa that this was what I wanted for Christmas. Christmas came and went with no camera under the tree. So, I took advantage of a good deal at Amazon and purchased the D40x kit and also the 55-200mm VR lens. A year later and I’m still pleased with my purchase. I’m still learning how to use it, having fun and taking some great pictures.

My first digital SLR nikon cameras
I took a while converting from film to digital. My first two digital slr nikon (back around 2000) were sold within a week of purchase. Somewhere around 2004, I bought my first point-and-shoot nikon d40 digital slr, and it was good enough to keep. I have upgraded one or two times, but finally had to get an nikon d40 slr digital camera.

Fantastic nikon digital cameras for the price. Amatuer and pros alike will find useful.
Fantastic small nikon slr form factor in a surprisingly high-quality image. Have been using this nikon d40 digital camera for travel assignments and on-the-go when I need to spend a lot of time wandering around, and is an excellent light-weight and inconspicuous body. Still works with many Nikon lens, though you’ll need to manual focus with some of them. Highly recommended, I plan on using this till 2012. A++

D40 Nikon is excellent!
My sister-in-law was prodding me to move away from 35mm photography and take a stab at digital format. I have used several of the small cameras from Kodak, but knew I needed a SLR if I was going to get serious.
The D40 has worked like a charm. The settings are easy to understand and the pictures so far have been excellent. One note: I did sit down with the camera and the manual and go through it page by page. There is a learning curve, but it is not steep.
Very good product that I am glad to carry with me everywhere I go on a regular basis.
