i heard that ppl saying nikon d40 and d40x have no auto focus, but why when i ask the shop ppl who sell it they say have?
*
to be precise...theres two types of autofocus...one is in the body itself..one is in the lens..so d40 don have internal autofocus...need to rely on the lens AF...if no means nid manual focus lor

Don't laugh ah...

Can't afford a dry cabinet, so I've been using a Thirsty Hippo inside a Toyogo plastic container. Hey, principle's the same right? Airtight container and moisture absorber.  8 years and my camcorder, SLR and tapes are doing fine smile.gif

haha...i think many people use this way ler..got a few friends do that also...

ebentan,
If u like as hobby n casual, get the 18-200. Many ppl also think like u first time like 18-55 n 55-200 cos cheaper then sold both n got the 18-200. easier

hm... for me.. d40 performs well in high ISO...i dont know about 400d... and... d80 i think is another level of photography...unless you are willing to fork out that much money THEN only start learning the basics of photography..then just go ahead lo...hehe...expensive things always better ma laugh.gif

EDIT: oh...and i went to shashinki just now to browse trought the lens...but i can differentiate lens with or without AF motor.. please help icon_question.gif
