Oooooh my bad those just look exactly like anti's style. Good shots..

ok so im planning on getting a d40 - but im still on the fench of weather i would use such a expensive camera to its full advantage.

with the design work i do for print and web work i suppose its a good thing and i like photography at the moment even though i seldom use my dodgy kodak 3mega pixel lol.

is it really worth it? gah i cant decide

d12 is better

I am not a huge fan of the D40. it only accepts certain types of Nikkor lenses. You are much better off getting a D50. I found that once I had a good camera to take pictures with, I went out more and more to use the camera.

I have the D50 and love it and forte's right, once you get a good camera, you'll want to go out and use it. Ive taken over 6000 with mine and i havent even had it a year

Here are some pics. what you guys think?

watermark makes me angry.

and does that last pic look like it's CGI to anyone else?



good shots though, I like them.

the last one just has a bunch of adjustments made to it

i dig the last one

well its kinda going to be a present so im not going to stretch far and ask for more expensive



im sure i will work wonders with it but its just weird having such a large expensive camera, not something i can just stick in my pocket and go snowboarding with

second is my fav, nice man

While the D50 is a good buy, the D40 will accept all current Nikkor lenses. The ONLY thing it is missing is an internal focus motor. This is important because on lenses that lack this (cheap lenses from a couple years ago), you will be restricted to manual focus ONLY.

However, there are enough lens choices out there where if you got the D40 you will not be lacking in glass.

hey guys its been a long time since I got on these forums.

I've gotten a great deal. My friend found a Nikon d40 with the lens, in an abandon building and its been a year now and I asked him if I can take it off his hands for $200.00 I checked out the camera. But I was thinking would it be worth it just to buy a new one with a warranty just in case something were to happen to it.

What do you think?

check the camera out, if it works then take the deal. i doubt something will happen.

found it in an abandoned building lol?
