Hello all

D40 and D50 user here. But I love D40 more as its user-friendlier.
 

Nice to see a dedicated D40 thread here! Judging from the Nikon DSLR listing, think there are simply too few owners around! ;)

A SLR convert since May 07. Now a happy-snapper with 18-70mm.
 

D40 user since Nov 2006

D40 Lenses:Sigma 10-20 / Nikon 18-55 / Nikon 55-200 Non VR / 18-200VR / 17-55
 

hm,mmmm...zaren used to be canon user..how come the switch?

well...i used to shoot film using yashica/contax, nikon, olympus. digital compacts using canon, olympus, fuji. dslrs using canon, nikon. i don't have any strong brand preferences, but am now shooting nikon becos i like the uber convenience of the 18-200vr lens. :)

i bought my d40 kit + 2GB SD from alan photo (sim lim) for $850 incl. gst .
 

Me ME!!

I just bought my D40 earlier this week...having fun playing with the shutter speeds in the meantime.

Will post some pics soon

Alan Photo (Funan) quoted me $850 (exclude gst) so I bought from it's next door neighbour (Pixel) at $830 (before gst) which comes with 2GB card.

Last nite, my hubby and I tested out the camera and switched off all lights and just left my computer monitor on and we took a few shots of magazine on the floor. The 30secs shutter gave us a bright image!! We were very surprised! We even tried taking the same shot but WITHOUT the computer monitor light (complete darkness) and used 1min shutter and though image was dark but still visible and able to read the words on the cover of the magazine.

Very fun!! Am thinking of going dragging my hubby along (to help carry tripod :p) to take National day fireworks these coming weekends...
 

i got it in june 07.

d40/18-55ed II/55-200 non-vr

I have been wondering should i trade 18-55 and 55-200 to 18-200vr, what do u guys think?
 

I find this rude and unnecessary...

I don't think the threadstarted meant it in a rude way.

Anyway, I didn't take offence at it since it's a fact tat D40 is one of the cheapest DSLRs out there...

And he started with a "Heh" so I think he meant to be funny la.

Chill out ;)

D40 is cheap yes, but still it's capable of producing very pretty images.

18-200 user here.

This lens has its own limits, choose lens by what you shoot, not by which lens you like.
