  Nikon D40 digital SLR camera
  By Doug Harman
  
  Review summary: - At the time of writing this review, just 4 months after the launch of the D40, Nikon had announced the D40x (its review to follow shortly), a 10-megapixel upgrade of this model and one designed to oust Canon's EOS 400D from its perch.
  
  Pros: Good price, good handling, design, large 2.5-inch colour LCD, USB2 (Hi-Speed) connectivity, great image quality, good value for money
  
  Cons: No top plate data LCD, no lens motor in body (non-AF-S/AF-I lenses manual focus only), no depth of field preview, no exposure or white balance bracketing
  
  Verdict: The Nikon D40 is a budget, compact DSLR, that is has to be said it does it rather well
