D40 is a good camera..of course, if u got money then js go for D70, D80 ..

Cons of D40 :
- too small
- not easy to do setting

Pros :
- totally better than PNS
- cheap

see my signature ..

Well, your DSLR will help you built some muscle in your arms, boy!

Last time I thought my 0.5kg lens on my 0.8kg body was heavy.
Now I'm using a metal barrel 1kg zoom lens.. and then the 0.5kg lens feels lighter now.

Well, 'sharpness' is also relative to the output picture size. Heck, if you don't print beyond 4R or 5R size, any kit lens whose aperture is stepped down 1 or 2 stops and with good lighting can give seemingly tack-sharp images.

You'll still be limited to what the in-camera buffer memory can hold. If the manual says your D40 can't do more than 4 highest-quality JPEGs per second, then no memory card can improve that.

What a faster memory card can improve is the wait time before that in-camera buffer memory is cleared again and you're ready for the next burst of shots.

Agreed..

u can see how many pic that buffer can hold when u half press the button..
if buffer full then wait until all the pic in da bufffer transfer to ur memory card..
faster memory card, no need wait for longer time..kakaka...
