Nikon d40x

My main camera is a d40x and, for the first time, I decided to brave photo.net’s review and attached comments and commentaries.

I have always raved over this camera, simply the best value dSLR to be had. The images it produces are superb, it is light enough to carry around. Many criticise the kit lenses which is fair but for most uses they are more than adequate and with a little judicious post processing the problem becomes all but moot.

The denizens of Photo.net can be a little harsh on the lower end serious equipment so I must admit that I was pleasantly surprised to read this rave review and the equally complimentary comments – it seems that almost everyone that owns this camera becomes very attached to it.

One irony is that one of Nikons most lauded product is one of their shorter lived ones, the 10.2mp d40x replaced the 6.1mp d40 very recently and is itself now being replaced by the d60 which seems very similar by all accounts.
