      Nikon D40

      Review summary: For the beginning SLR user, you can't beat the D40 for price/performance. It's solidly built, has a comfortable feel and offers image quality vastly superior to point and shoot cameras with their small sensors. And don't let the “small” MP number ...

      Pros: 6.1MP DX-format CMOS sensor, Bright 2.5” 230,000 dot LCD, Fast 2.5fps continuous shooting speed

      Verdict: The Nikon D40 Digital SLR is Nikon's smallest and least expensive...

      Nikon D40

      By David Fearon

      Review summary: The aggressive price and Nikon design know-how mean there's still a place for the D40

      Verdict: It's logical, easy to use and if you get used to it, upgrading to a more expensive Nikon body in the future won't give you any surprises. The lens attaches to a standard Nikon F mount. That means if you buy more lenses, you can upgrade to a different ...

      Nikon D40: 2008 Review

      By Alan Sircom

      Review summary: With today's economic climate, money is tight. Yesteryear's Nikon D40 comes in cheap, but how does it stand up by today's standards?

      Pros: The price ; Deceptively solid build ; Good image quality at high ISO ; Potentially good picture quality ; That price again

      Cons: Small LCD ; Dated design means no live view ; Soft images as standard

      Verdict: Despite the low cost, the Nikon D40 does not seem built down to a price. It feels nicely robust in the hand; light and plastic, but solid polycarbonate. The 2.5" rear LCD is bright and doesn't seem small unless you compare it to later designs. The ...

    Nikon D40 SLR - Great choice for first-time SLR user

    Nikon D40 By Anonymous (08/01/2008)
    • Pros: Light, relatively compact, well built, great image quality, easy use
    • Cons: Doesn't fit a jacket pocket - but I still kept my old compact!

    This was my first Digital SLR, having been a very happy user of a Sony compact for several years. I considered bridge cameras but decided to bite the bullet and buy a SLR for about the same money. Although I have only had the camera for a couple of weeks, I have no regrets and have already been able to take pictures that the compact would never have handled. The great thing for me is the speed of ... Read Full Review »

    Nikon D40 By Anonymous (19/01/2007)
    • Pros: Fantastic value - whole package brillliant
    • Cons: None for the money - not worth a mention - very satisfied

    Ordered yesterday via Kelkoo - arrived spot on time,perfectly packed, today despite there being a great shortage on this model. Why buy a bridge camera when you can have the whole 'buisness' for the same cash? Many thanks Nikon & Kelkooo!!! Read Full Review »
