Digital SLR Lens -Customer Reviews
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.
