Good starter cam to learn the dslr functions, can produce some cracking imagery with a decent lens!

Id go for a D40 instead of the D40x, save some dosh for a lens! unless you are going to be printing stuff larger than a3 you wont really need the 10megapixels

when your confident with the functions and you want to persuit photography you can then move onto say a D50 or a D80..

if your a beginner, like me, D40/D40x is ideal. i have had a D40 since january and think its brilliant, more than does what i need it to, dont be put off by the 'entry level' status. a good camera to learn with and relatively easy to use IMO

coolio, but wheres the best/cheapest place to get one?

D40 gets my vote, I have been printing some A2 prints and they have come out great!

is that in RAW with a bit of touching up after?

^ nope, just jpeg. Had them printed at photobox, no editing done, just straight from the camera

inherently flawed, not a canon :rasp:

Consider Canon and Sony as well. Been very impressed with both makes as well as Nikon.

The normal D40 for a 1st time user is more then ample i bought one last week and im well chuffed with it

^^1st time out so the photos will only get better as i get use to it. The track photos are done with a 55-200mm lens and the last few of parked cars are done with a 18-55mm lens

you wont be disapointed with this camera
