My new Nikon D40

I am just a beginner in case of serious photography, I had a plan of executing this hidden hobby of mine so finally decided to buy Nikon D40 after doing lot of research on DSLR's. I found Nikon D40 a versatile DSLR at a reasonable price for beginners like me.


I would like to share few of the points that I considered before buying my Nikon D40. Trust me I have used it for more than a month now and D40 has given me fantastic results. It is the best camera to take outdoor pictures especially if you get it at a price of Rs. 24k in India.
The price drops to just under $500, with the excellent 18-55mm lens.


Nikon D40 is too much fun it trendy and cool. Nikon D40 is almost weightless with its 18-55 mm Lens and SB-400 built in flash, I grab it for Rs 24 k a couple of months back. I can just click good photographs easily with it. It works great with there lenses like my Nikon 50-200 mm.As of yesterday, I've made over 1,000 shots on my D40 and it still runs and works like new. I get about 750 shots on each battery charge, and even after swinging around my neck unprotects these past years, the plastic LCD cover is still perfectly clear.


Why should I move my head to look two places when I can have it all right in front of me on my D40? Nikon D40 has about double the battery life of any other Cannon DSLR's in same range, so I never need to buy or carry a spare battery, even to make 500 shots in a day or more. I got my D40 for fun, and since have fallen in love with how fast and easy it is to use. The great images just keep pouring out of it. Its so light weight I carry it everywhere I want with any extra battery or the charger. Nikon D40 is a fun, light, cool camera which is very sturdy and has great battery backup.


I am not trying to do marketing or anything for this product but I am really impressed with it, that all I wanted to share. Infact Nikon has discontinued this product as it affected the higher versions of the Nikon :).

As we move on I will add few snaps that I took with my D40. Trust me all the pictures are originals, unprocessed. It captures great pictures and no processing is required.
