Advantages: Quality Pictures, Easy to use, Compact Disadvantages: Price but still worth it for a decent camera
the Nikon D40x it had everything we wanted including a sport mode which was the main feature I wanted, as border collies don't keep still for very long!
Me knowing absolutely nothing about digital SLR cameras was just happy to have a cool new camera get it home and try it out.
** The Nikon D40x Features **
*Auto-Focus
Just like the previous model (D40) this camera has an auto focus feature all though it does not have a built in focus drive motor, so only works with lenses that have their own built in drive motor, suitable lenses for this feature are AF-S and AF-I lenses.
The auto focus is brilliant for fast moving dogs and cars and anything else that moves so you can get pictures quickly, features of the auto focus include?
Three area TTL phase detection, Nikon Multi-CAM530 auto focus module

Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Nikon D40x
I do like being nosey and I always spy on my neighbours it gives me a sense of well being and although I have been to the dr about this apparently its not a mental condition. I just enjoy looking at things, i'm no peeping tom but I really do enjoy watching the birds whether they have wings or legs... Anyway enough about my social life, today I am reviewing this pair of Nikon10x 42 binoculars! They are fantastic and have the following great features:
All lenses and prisms are multilayer coated for the brightest images
Phase correction coated roof prisms for high resolution
High-reflection mirror-coating prisms for bright image
High-eyepoint design provides a clear field of view, even for eyeglass wearers
Close focusing distance : 2.5m
Eco-glass optics free of lead and arsenic
Waterproof and fog-free with O-ring seals ...
Advantages: Movies, LiveView, 12.3 mpixels, build quality, excellent lens range Disadvantages: Still quite bulky for casual use. Expensive if that's all you want it for
in ink now that A4 photos are pin-sharp!
I?ve also noticed that photos are now more ?A4? shaped compared to previous experience where they were strictly 4:3 format which suits me fine. Likewise, movies can be shot in 16:9 mode to suit an ever-larger number of televisions.
The lens in this ?kit?, the VR 18 -105 zoom comes from the upper of Nikon?s two ranges of digital camera auto-focus lenses, is superb in everyday use. It?s all too easy to read professional reviews that talk of a lack of sharpness at full aperture and full zoom and be put off by them. Then you read that they?re talking about blowing up the outer edge of the picture about 10 times, just so that some nit-picker can say, ?See I told you it wasn?t pin-sharp!?
MOANS?
Well, not surprisingly for something I?m going to award 5 stars to, they?re few and far between. This ...
