Cons
LCD gets marks from the nose very easily
Recommended it?
Yes
The Nikon D40 is not a heavy, bulky and complicated SLR to use. As an amateur, I wanted something that will introduce me to the world of photography without the complications, but with the great SLR features.

Small, light weight, beautifully realized images. Price Point.
Cons
Inability to AF with all Nikon lenses. Consumer quality build.
Recommended it?
Yes
The Nikon D40 with 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 AF-S AF lens is this company's bare bones entry level offering in the extremely volatile digital SLR market. As the two giants of the industry, Canon and Nikon vie for an ever increasing slice of the dSLR pie, Nikon has taken a calculated marketing gamble by...
