D90 with lens is around 3.3k, so it's all on ur budget, D40 I think is a bit old.... I hav no idea on old models, I know D60 is better rite, n it goes around 1.5k with lens. Shutter count should preferably less then 10,000, the life time of the shutter in Nikon DSLR is around 100,000.

Warranty wise better get an unfill warranty card, but actually warranty card need to b accompanied with a valid receipt with a date on it. So u need to bring a unfill warranty card back to the shop the previous owner bought it n get it chopped when u wanna purchase. For me, the previous receipt the owner bought it is important, juz an unfill warranty card is useless!! unless u can get a random shop u knew to issue a new receipt with date for you, and chop on the warranty card when u wanna claim the warranty.

I think nth to do wit A or M mode ba, mayb u can use Vivid mode or u can PP it a bit n increase the hue of it...

juz my 2cents

I hope this is confirmed n glad to hear that..... but as wat celciuz said it's better to see the receipt of the from the 1st purchase to check the date of the item as published, esp for lens, body we still can see the SC

that day i went to nikon center[HQ] at menara pkns, they didn't ask any receipt. they only need the warranty card.if you worried about it, just bring along with the receipt.
