I got mine from Costco - can't remember exactly the price but it was during the time of the £60 cash back offer.

They don't always have stock of that sort of thing tho.

well warehouse express have a pricematch so will be as cheap as yu can get it, plus they're not going out of business like jessops!

As gets posted every week at least once

Also save your pennys and buy a D40 and spend the extra you saved buying the D40 over the D40X and buy a 50mm f/1.8 lense

Also regards the comment about Jessops going down. The warranty on the camera is with Nikon so it makes no bit of difference who you buy it with as long as it has a European warranty

my local camera shop has it for £449 which includes 2gb card, free crumpler nikon bag and filter, 2yr nikon warrent and the £40 cash back think thats a very good deal

You are paying for the bag and filter. No matter where you get the camera from you hve a 2 year warranty and the same with the cash back.

Camera for £378.98, 2GB Card £20, Crumpler Bag £50, Filter £13. Still a good deal none the less

But again I say go for the D40 and get the 50mm lense

is the D40 a much better camera then?? I am just starting with slr's so don't want to complicated! The reason i want to go for the d40x is because it has the 'help' button which gives you advise, just like the manual but your not carring it around with you.

They are the same camera mate bar a few small differences the main being the d40x has more mega pixels than the d40 and is a fair bit more expensive.

I think you would be more impressed with the 50mm lense as an extra than the extra few MP and other tiny differences.

Cheapest at the moment obviously you get £30 cashback as well and free delivery so that makes it £267.00 delivered.

Unless you are printing A3 and above you are not going to notice much if any difference in the picture quality seeing as they are the same quality. It isnt all about the megapixels
