Full review
I purchased the Nikon D40 in June of 2007. It is by far the most used camera in my fleet. Lightweight - yet perfectly capable of capturing anything! I use it for portraits, wedding photography, candids, landscapes, macro - name it. The built in flash works in a pinch, but I prefer the SB-600 Speedlight attached for anything that requires a flash. If you are looking into purchasing a nice lightweight, high performance digital SLR this is your best bet. Less expensive then the other Nikon options with just as much performance. I wouldn't bother buying anything more unless you could afford the Nikon D200, which in my opinion is the only camera that is a step up and worth the money. Great value for beginners, but impressive enough for the novice. I would highly recommend this camera to anyone who loves photography.
