... which means older lenses won't be able to autofocus when used with this camera. And secondly, the camera only features a 3-point autofocus system (many newer SLR's have over 10). It's an extremely well designed and fun camera to use, and although the main body is plastic, it's strong and can withstand knocks and bumps. As SLR's go, it's small, lightweight and comfortable to hold, which makes it a joy to use and a very versatile machine. There are many lenses compatible with the D40x, but as I mentioned ...more

Nikon D40x: Nikon's entry level stunner (499 words)

The D40x is an updated version of Nikon's D40. The main differences being the increase from 6 to 10 megapixels, and the ability to shoot at 3 frames per second (compared to the D40's 2.5).

I have to admit though, i have not been able to use all of the functions, as there are just so many, but this is what makes the camera so good. One of the things that i love and would help just about anyone wanting to do photography is there is a button to explain each of the ...
