I feel so happy that it serve me well. For a noob like me, there are many thing to learn about. For the price also very attractive. The major thing i like is that D40 is very light weight compare with other DSLR. The size also very easy to carry to everywhere. So D40 is very suitable for girl to use also.

Dude your referring to this right ? http://www.sigmaphoto.com/lenses/lenses_al...303&navigator=3If i am not mistaken you will need amount (adapter) for nikon. I believe you can use it however there will not be autofocus. Gotta use manuel for this macro. Thats pretty far reach for a macro lens, you better get a good tripod else i think anything above 200mm its gonna be 50% blur shots dude.. just my 2 cents here p/s: This 1 works with auto focus on the D40 if I am not mistaken.

do u all think a 200mm is enough to take scenery pics? i means hv to zoom from far.
and a 200mm use to take potrait pic will it be nice compare to 300mm?
and another question, the 3 focus point will it affect much on the photography? compare to 5 focus point.

This is subjective.. sometimes u want wide angle to take pic of the scenery..
