Best Deal for the Money You really can't go wrong with this camera. It has a great price and offers great features is durable has great battery life and best of all it takes really nice pictures. For me the item came broken but buy.com replaced the camera promptly. They even paid for shipping the item to them. The second camera came better protected. Not sure where the blame goes to Nikon for not providing better packaging or the shipping company for not handling item correctly.

| | | Great General-Purpose Camera This is a great camera if you want to step up from the point-and-shoot ones. The 6.1 MP will probably be fine for most peoples' usage. The first weekend after I got it I went walking around downtown taking pictures of everything and was very pleased with the results and with blowing up the pictures to larger than a standard 4x6 or 5x7. I did have to buy a new printer because my 6-year-old one just didn't have the DPI to print the pictures I took with this camera. But printers are relatively in...

100% (1 of 1) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | Love my Nikon D40 I used 35mm Nikons in the 70s and 80s and moved to digital point and shoot cameras in the late 90s. After upgrading several times, I laid my hands on my father-in-law's Nikon D70 SLR and fell in love again with the SLR camera. Last Christmas, I treated myself to the new D40 SLR. I took it on it on a trip to Russia and Portugal and took about 500 shots. The control over the shot is so much greater than a point-and-shoot model that it can hardly be described. I'm able to control the exposure, op...

| | | great camera I love it so far its light weight, durable (knock on wood) great pictures quality and you can get it to take any picture that you can conjure up in you fantastical imagination. I still havent figured out how to use all of its features. But i only read about half of the owners manual befor heroes came on. god bless the USA, right. I even deployed with it to iraq and so far its been thru hell. Im pretty rough on all my electronics and this on is holding up pretty good.

20% (1 of 5) Users Found This Review Helpful | | | Good starter DSLR Compairing this to other DSLRs, I find that the D40 is a very user friendly camera. I haven't compaired it to the 10 megapixel D40x, however picture clarity is amazing. The included 18-55mm lens is versatile and lightweight with excellent closeup capablility. As advised by several Nikon users, the 18-200mm f3.5-5.6 af-s dx vr Nikkor lens is worth the $750 investment, and will be my next purchase for the D40. For quick, quality photography, the automatic settings are A+, however if you need to ch...
