    Although there are a lot of newer, higher model digital SLR cameras out in the market today, I still love my Nikon D40X. It is simply a handy SLR camera loaded with outstanding features that are easy to manage.
    Apart from its precision photography, Nikon D40X, is also sleek and stylish. I just love being seen with it. The smoothness of its contours makes for an easy grip. The buttons are well placed for easy access. No accidents there.
    It is perfect with the 35-105 mm lens that comes with the standard kit or with a longer lens sold separately. Like I said it is precision photography at its best.
