Retired. I enjoy photography, drumming and motorcycling, as well as travel. I buy and sell very little on ebay any more. My account was previously hacked by someone in China. I m trying to take it back now.

Perfect beginner or amateur model with outstanding results every time.
2 of 2 found this helpful I have owned and used a D40 for several years. Only recently did I upgrade to a much more advanced D7000, and believe me, the D40 is still dear to my heart. It is lightweight, easy to use and takes outstanding clean, sharp and bright photos with rarely a glitch. Perfect for students, housewives, first time or slightly advanced digital SLR users. Set to fully automatic for easy point and shoot or manually adjust any or all aspects of the shutter, aperture, ISO and bracketing very easily. Intuitive menu system. One of the best things about this is that the photos don't take up a lot of space on a hard drive, but are still high quality. Don't let salesmen talk you into more and more megapixels. It only leads to exponentially larger file sizes and now my aging PC locks up with the files from the D7000 because of their size and storage requirements. As a bonus the D40 is one of the few digital cameras that does not block infrared light from reaching the sensor, so with an IR filter you can experiment inexpensively ($17) with fun and interesting infrared photos. These are now being sold by people "upgrading", and they're great deals for the money. Batter lasts a Looooong time - mine NEVER died on me during a full day of carrying. Just make sure you get a compatible lens or two and start shooting excellent photos tomorrow!

So far, it's awesome
2 of 2 found this helpful I've had two of these for about 2 weeks. So far I am very pleased. They came with built-in photocells that turn the lasers off during daylight. I have two on my tri-level home and is sufficient for the front. These look good shining up into trees but consider the dangers to pilots before using them in that manner. They would also be perfect to shine on your ceiling indoors during a party.
Red and green together or green by itself, steady burning only, no flash mode.
