I am not a photographic expert, but a novice who has been eager to upgrade from compact cams to a DSLR for a long time. Consequently I did a lot of research prior to investing in my D40 recently, and I am very happy with my decision.
Sure, if you are willing to spend considerably more money you will get a better camera, but it is foolish to think that you would also automatically get better pictures! If you can do without certain 'bells & whistles', like liveview or bracketing for instance, ...

I'm not going to add to the volumes already written about this camera, there is little point. When I moved up from a digital compact I couldn't quite afford a DSLR (starting around the £450 mark) so I bought a quality bridge camera (Panasonic FZ20, which is a truly remarkable and very capable camera). I always missed my previous SLR though (Nikon FM - the very epitome of manual photography). The D40 feels like coming home, it just feels right. There are reviews aplenty if you want the technical stuff (Google ...

Amazing, just amazing, get a G10 get a s100fs blah blah this little beast will wipe the floor with all of the current bridge cams etc etc.
Good focus speed, only 3 point AF but seems fine, quick to focus, IQ great, ISO superb, With a hint of neat image its up there with the D90.
Dont be fooled by mega pixels, More mega pixels = more noise ! dont do it.
The D40 is a cult classic in the making.

This was an upgrade from a Sony compact digital camera which was fine , but the Nikon is superb.
I was looking at a Pentax k100ds and this Nikon D40, and the Nikon felt better in the hand.less heavy and more user friendly for a first timer.
At first as I am not an expert I used it on "auto" but soon wanted to experiment with the other settings,all easy to follow.
This is a great first step to dslr cameras and the price and service I got from Amazon was perfect.
