hmmmm ... i don't see why the sb400 will solve the hand shaking ... is it because of the weight ?

or because you'll have a more powerful flash (than the built - in) so that you can use flash every time, thus you can go with faster shutter speed ? (thus eliminates the blurry images cause by hand shakes)

lol ... anyway I'm new to dslr too, so please advise smile.gif

Get the D40, dun worry if u are newbie. The kit lens is very good (sharp and fast AF) and if u are in tight budget, this camera suit u well and probably u can invest on 55-200VR if u can't afford 18-200VR but u lose the conveniency.

And the D40 is designed for consumer from PnS or prosumer. The JPEG processing quality is very good, better than D80, good WB and good ISO performance.

thkz for ur advice smile.gif personally i like d40 body,its cute. but i might save abit more money for a100 due to its in-build sss
18-200 is 3k cry.gif dunno have to save how many years to get 3k

If i were u just get a tripod or monopod if ur hand shakes to much

QUOTE(aba9785 @ Apr 16 2007, 09:10 PM)
well...i would suggest that u use tripod most of the time
get a good tripod, but it will be pricey

then something like Xtend-a-View
http://photosolve.com/main/index.html
http://www.bermangraphics.com/coolpix/cpsunlight.htm

dont forget to use a remote or the self-timer to trigger the shutter button.

with flash, if you're shooting in P-mode, your shutter speed is set to 1/60 which is sufficient to counter handshake with your kit lens.

with flash, you don't need to use slow shutter speed. smile.gif so with fast shutter speed, handshake is not likely to affect it because it's so fast it captures before your shake makes an impact.

i think if you like to do photojournalism, just get urself an external flash so u can use higher shutter speed to prevent blurred images...1/60 should be just nice...u can push it up to 1/100 if you would like to be on the safe side...providing that the person/object you're shooting is moving too...but not worries bout handshake...everyone will have it after holding that heavy camera for a couple of hours...
