| "Unless
you are a sport journalist, I don't think you can go wrong with this
camera. It's perfect for those who want high quality pictures, more
control (than a point and shoot camera), and have a DSLR experience
(instant power on and no shutter lag), without having to carry a bulky
camera. And unless you are shooting sports/actions professionaly (which
faster focusing processor, faster frames per second and larger memory
buffer might be needed), the D40 is pretty much all you will need." |

| "This
is an ergonomical, fast handling, very solidly built Digital SLR with
many excellent features (like a 2.5 inch silky smooth and bright lcd
found on the $1600 D200). Pictures are beautiful. It uses the same
excellent 6 megapixel sensor from the D50, D70, D70s. 6 megapixel is
plenty, I get tack sharp 8x12 inch prints. Don't get stuck in counting
megapixels. 6MP from a DSLR will blow the doors off a 6,7,8MP compact
or even DSLR-like cameras. Especially under low light conditions. 6mp
is 3008x2000 pixels." |

| "Nikon
has hit a grand slam with this camera. It's as close to perfection as
any digital camera has ever come. Sure, there are "better" cameras for
more money, but they are all twice the size/weight. I would get this
camera even if I had an unlimited amount of money to spend. There is
simply nothing like it." |
