5 out of 5 stars great camera   September 30, 2008
 1 out of 3 found this review helpful

I have been very pleased with this camera and recommend it to anyone who wants to take great pictures. I love being able to zoom in without losing the quality of the picture. This camera is good for sports or just taking still pictures. I rate this product with a 5 star


5 out of 5 stars Best Amateur DSLR Ever!   September 23, 2008
 2 out of 4 found this review helpful

I kept telling myself, "I'm a Canon person, I'm a Canon person." The Eye-Fi crew kept trying to turn me into a Mac person, now they were trying to turn me into a Nikon person? I didn't think this was possible. They had a D40 shipped out to us for testing and I was quite a bit more surprised at how excellent this camera was. After using a Nikon L11 Point N Shoot, I didn't think that the D40 would tickle my fancy. In fact, I expected to be disappointed.

It seemed like no matter what mode I put it in, I just could not get a bad picture to come out of this camera. Even when I mistakenly left it on manual focus and took way too many pictures that were out of focus they still seemed good! The ISO settings were amazing, as well. I put it all the way up to ISO 800 and still failed to get any real noticeable noise in the pictures (unless you looked at 150% or so). ISO 100 was absolutely fabulous, no noise whatsoever. I took a ton of night shots with this camera, never disappointed.

The Nikon DSLR really changed my opinions on Nikons. I will still never use another Nikon PnS again anytime in the future, but I am now a Nikon DSLR fan!



4 out of 5 stars Dissatisified With Amazon   September 15, 2008

Camera purchase okay and good camera. Very dissatisfied with Amazon as they canceled another order with no explanation. Will not order again from Amazon.


5 out of 5 stars I love my D40!   September 9, 2008
 3 out of 4 found this review helpful

I have now owned my D40 for just under a year and I am hooked. I've shot 10,000+ pics and still counting. It's size, ease of use, and user friendly interface are perfect for people thinking of getting into the DSLR world; and the battery life is phenomenal! The only things I wish this camera came with were the ability to bracket shots automatically, and an intervolometer, other than that I love my D40!


5 out of 5 stars Perfect starter dSLR   September 7, 2008
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

This is the camera that I've been waiting for. After years of using a point and shoot, it was time to upgrade to a dSLR. This camera and lens kit are a phenomenal value and the photos are perfect quality.

There is no need to buy a more expensive camera if you are new to the dSLR market!
