Review: The Nikon D40 Digital Camera with 18-55mm Lens produces EXCELLENT images in good light, and if you can compensate for bad lighting conditions with the Manual setting or flash then you can get equally great results...

Pros: Lots of features.
Easy to use.
Intuitive menu.

Cons: No video capture like most recent SLR's, but not really a "con".

Review: This is an EXCELLENT camera for the money.  Don't be drawn to more expensive cameras just because of image size.  Honestly this camera has more than enough for the every day hobbyist.  On my first shoot, right out of the box, I was able to ...

Pros: lightweight, easy use, battery life excellent with flash use, lens is sharp

Cons:  can't think of any

Pros: The ease of use and quality of the pictures was more than i expected.

Cons: I didn't find any cons as far as learning how to use the camera.

Pros: Beautiful, clear pictures
Uncomplicated to use
Sturdy components

Cons: Occasional hesitation between depression of shutter button and recording of picture.

Pros: Dedicated ISO/WB buttons, better diopter

Cons: Same metering issues as D40

The Bottom Line: The D80 is a camera for those ready to express, and apply, themselves.

Review: I've been using the D40 for about a year and a half now, and have been getting some great images with the 18-200mm VR lens. Six megapixels are plenty for the size of prints I make, but I wanted a bit more cropping flexibility and still retain a near-300 ...

Pros: Great performance/reasonable price.  Great size/feel.  Beautiful pics.

Cons: Uses a Nikon battery/automatic flash was troublesome

The Bottom Line: Great camera, easy to use, all the functionality you want and more, good price.  Straddles the consumer/professional line perfectly.

Review: I purchased the D80 after careful research.  I wanted to take the plunge into the digital SLR arena after years of consideration and waiting for the prices to come down.  I had used a Canon AE-1 SLR for the longest time and though I loved the ...

Pros: Enough features for the beginning photographer, but not so many that it gets confusing

Cons: Will only autofocus with pricey AF-S lenses. Is 6.1 MP, max. print size of 11"x14"

The Bottom Line: For someone who is on a budget, but wants to get into photography this is a great first camera.

Review: As someone who has mostly worked with digital point and shoot cameras and some film SLRs, I wanted to upgrade to a DSLR. I chose this camera mostly because I am a student on a budget, and it seemed to be the best deal for the money.  I have been ...
