Digital camera reviews of Nikon D40 6.1MP Digital SLR Camera Kit with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor Lens

Digital camera Review: The end is near for "compact" digital cameras.....
Summary: 5 Stars

Nikon D40 6.1MP Digital SLR Camera Kit with 18-135mm Nikkor Zoom Lens.
For $660 it's hard to beat the photo quality of the camera, and the range of the zoom lens. In dSLR usage, the lens is 27-202mm (1.5x focal factor), very wide to medium telephoto. The camera is insanely fast and very easy to use, and with a lens like this, you don't need to carry another lens around.
Thank you Nikon.

Digital camera Review: Everything is good but the shutter error
Summary: 3 Stars

I had this camera for a few months. Everything is good until the error message "Error, press the button to release the shutter again" appears every time I take a picture. I have to push the button at least three times to take one picture now. Sometimes even worse: the error message just keeps coming and I can never take one in some mode. The problem made me missed a lot of good shots. Since this error message is included in the list of errors on the manual, I guess Nikon is aware of this problem but did not get a chance to fix it?

I would have loved this camera a lot if it does not have such problem.

Digital camera Review: Wonderful!
Summary: 5 Stars

I decided to make the transition to DSLRs and this camera was definitely a good decision. For a college student, the price was definitely within budget as well. It is easy to use and very light weight. The photos come out clear and crisp, and the 55-200mm lens is amazing!

Ever since its arrival, I haven't been able to put the camera down!

Digital camera Review: Nikon d40x
Summary: 5 Stars

Love it, Love it, Love it. The pictures are a wow and it is easy to use. I would highly recommend this camera.

Digital camera Review: Still Rocks
Summary: 5 Stars

Through all the D80, D40x, and D60, Nikon still has not come up with a better replacement for the D40--and that does not even consider the price. Fabulous performance, size, usability. Are you buying this level of camera to create poster-size prints? I thought not. Therefore, 6MP is totally sufficient, and at the given sensor size provides better low-light performance which is what matters. The world does not need 10+ MP when it's stuffed into the same size sensor!!! The only logical upgrade path I see is when D300 performance drops within shouting range of the D40 price.
