What about this one

Nice camera. Is that what you are wishing for?

Great choice. It was on my list on contenders. Great camera for the price. I do not think howver that I will ever jump to the DSLR market. All of my photos have been achieved with a regular camera, nothing spectacular. I have been happy with my results. Its a balance of use and cost for me. I decided on a Sony megazoom model because it has powerful optics, amazing focus speed, and all the manual controls. To acheive the focal length that I have with this Nikon, I would have to add an expensive lens. Too much to carry around for me. Plus, these days I find myself slowing down a bit. So, my Sony was the best value all around. Its great for what I do. If I made money with my work (and this is the ONLY way I would buy a DSLR) then it would be different. The fact is that I do not. I shoot and share. Thats it.

But by all means Kenneth - this is only my take on things. This is a fine Nikon camera, and it achieves great images. I believe mikelly owns one. And you can see by his work how fine a camera it is. Good luck if you do buy one!

I have it Sally,

thanks Fred

Oh... you own one! I see... well, your images do show a marked improvement. I believe its prt camera, but more shooter.

Well, Kenneth, get busy and take some pictures!

Im on it..

Great camera Kenneth,I got mine last spring and have been very happy with it

Nice camera, I use DSLR too. (Nikon D80 + Nikkor 80-200/2.8D ED + SB600)

My friend from Moscow has Nikon D3.Absolutely super camera, but price...............

hehe Great, now i know im not a fool hihi
nah, i got mine very cheap ^^,) 3500 NOK mhm and in $ i dont know hehe

I use a Nikon too...Coolpix 5700...Good camera...
But the D40 is the best...

i have D40x wiiii

Nikon D40x - it´s best choice for beginner.
I love Nikon only, not Canon....
When you will be more skilled - you will think about D80 or D300 and maybe D3.....
But, in begin - D40x...
And now you must think about lens.
Lens more important than body.
Buy expensive Lens....Body for 1-3 years, but Lens forever.....Amen!!!

i have lense ! hehe and i have 3 years of "repare?"

ahh, im only a digital camera user.. this is hard...dont get the zoom thing ^^,) hehe :p
