I'm an amateur photographer, but likes to snap great photos of a certain quality. I've owned this camera for about a year, and I absolutely love it. It's sturdy, rugged and makes very nice images indeed. You get that "pro" feeling every time you use this piece of hardware. If you know the 300d:...

Pros
Small, light weight, beautifully realized images. Price Point.
Cons
Inability to AF with all Nikon lenses. Consumer quality build.
Recommended it?
Yes
The Nikon D40 with 18-55mm f3.5-5.6 AF-S AF lens is this company's bare bones entry level offering in the extremely volatile digital SLR market. As the two giants of the industry, Canon and Nikon vie for an ever increasing slice of the dSLR pie, Nikon has taken a calculated marketing gamble by...

Easy to use for entry level dSLR user, lens kit included, much more
Cons
D40 is bare bones for dSLR, but has the stuff for any entry level enthusiast.
