 The Nikon D40x September 30, 2008

 Great beginner DSLR September 29, 2008
Igor Bumshteyn
Pros:
-Light.
-Great for beginners.
-Easy to use.
-Good build quality.
-Takes amazing shots.
-Fast.
Cons:
-Limited number of lenses available. (AF-S and AF-I only)
If you are new to DSRL world, then this camera is for you. It's fast, takes great pictures and really easy to use. The only downside I can think of is the lack of drive motor, which limits the number of auto-focus lenses you can use.
Great service. Great camera. September 8, 2008

I was very leery to buy a good camera on the internet. This camera came w/ everything promised, it was all packaged and never used. Works like a charm. Came promptly, too!
 Nikon D40x - problems August 30, 2008

I bought this camera 7 months ago to replace a Pentax SLR film camera.
I am not pleased with my purchase.
The autofocus is frequently ineffective, and I have had hundreds of shots ruined by uneven focusing. I now do not use autofocus, but manual, and I always shoot two shots of the same scene to ensure that at least one of them is in focus.
The 6-point focus of other cameras appears to work better.
Great Value Camera August 27, 2008
Andrew M. Somers (California)
For the price, this is a fine camera. The 10 Megapixel sensor takes excellent images - and the camera is small and lightweight.
I purchased this body, and added the AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-70mm f/3.5-4.5G IF-ED Lens. Nice lens and with this body is a better value than the Canon XTi in my opinion - even these less expensive the Nikon lenses are better than the Canon lenses, and certainly the poor kit lens that the Canon XTi comes with.
I really want a Nikon D300, but that was not available when I made this purchase, and in fact, the D40x does nearly everything I need, is easy to use, and substantially less expensive than a D200 or D300. As I am not doing high volume work, the D40x is just fine.
