D40 DSLR Camera Kit
The D40's high-resolution image quality is made possible by Nikon's high-performance 6.1 megapixel Nikon DX format CCD imaging sensor and exclusive Nikon image processing engine which assures stunning sharpness and color. Intuitive controls make the D40 point-and-shoot simple, enabling even first-time SLR users to capture beautiful memories perfectly. At just over 16 ounces, the beautifully styled and compact D40 makes high-performance digital SLR photography easier and more convenient than ever. The D40 can fire continuously at a speed of up to 2.5 frames per second, capturing high-quality action sequences of children in sporting activities such as soccer, baseball and much more. Playback images are easy to see, and function menus are easier to use with a larger and brighter color LCD monitor. The large 2.5-inch LCD monitor enables image preview at up to 19 times magnification and has large type fonts and easy-to-view menus as well as three all-new display options: Classic, Graphic and Wallpaper. Nikon's DX format CCD image sensor delivers vivid color and sharp detail, great for making beautifully detailed enlargements of 16 x 20 inches and beyond. High resolution also provides room for creative cropping. Includes 3x 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor Lens. Designed exclusively for use with Nikon DX-format digital SLRs, this ultra-compact 3x zoom offers Nikkor sharpness and versatility in a wide variety of shooting situations. * 1 Megabyte (MB) = 1,000,000 bytes; 1 Gigabyte (GB) = 1,000,000,000 bytes; MP = MegaPixels

Reviews & Ratings for D40 DSLR Camera Kit The Nikon D40 is a great dSLR that's rugged and takes outstanding pictures. It's lightweight body is a dream when you're shooting active lifestyle activities. I hiked 40+ miles over 4 days on the Rogue River trail carrying it in my hand 80% of the time. It's that light. The battery lasts forever on a charge and the Nikor lenses give great quality pics.

Reviews & Ratings for D40 DSLR Camera Kit This camera is exceptional when contrasted with others in the same area of functionality. Battery life leave little to be desired, and the resolution levels available and the speed with which you can operate this is unrivaled. The one thing I would say to get along with this, especially if there is a deal to be had, is additional lenses. It comes standard with the 15-55 mm lense, but the ability to zoom distances really requires up to a 300 mm or so. And they are expensive, so consider any package including one of that caliber.

Reviews & Ratings for D40 DSLR Camera Kit This is my first SLR camera and I love it. Very easy to use and takes the best pictures. I've entered a few in contests and have taken home either 1st or 2nd place every time. I would recommend spending a little more money the anti-vibe lenses to take the best shot every time.

My 1st picture with D40.
Reviews & Ratings for D40 DSLR Camera Kit I've always wanted a NIKON and finally got myself this D40 kit. With the 16gB card, @ Fine quality, I get 7800 pictures. This camera is SO easy to operate, specially for someone like me, who has a long way to go to use all the features in this SLR. Picture quality is AMAZING both with and without flash. I just wish that it had a Video shoot mode, but neverthless, this model is just the BEST I have had and will be a part of my life for a long time to come. Anyone who buys this D40, WILL NOT regret the purchase. Thank you NIKON. My kudos also to PC Connection for their excellent service.
