for me, there is no point to get D40x.

It's either D40 or D80.

shocking.gif why is it so tot the D40X is > then the D40

yes, D40x>D40 but whats the point u pay more jsut for the extra 4MP and iso100?

It's not like the D40x got built in focus motor.

D40 iso200 is very less noise, no iso100 is ok. 10MP, u need that? For me 6MP is enough.

to TS: go for D80 ler since budget is not a problem..

advantages:
1. better control of your camera
- a few easy-to-reach shortcut such as WB, ISO, QUAL, continuous, metering, AFmode..
- 2 rollers - one for shutter speed.. one for aperture(dunno is it call roller or dial)..
- small LCD panel on top of the camera is almost a must for u to easily control the setting..

2. Kelvin mode in WB
- this is very useful as u can set the WB by color temperature.. for more ask shinchan^^ tongue.gif kekeke...

3. support AF in wider range of lens..
- while D40/D40x just support AF-S otherwise u need to ManualFocus..
- very useful when u buy 50mm f/1.8 tongue.gif

4. 18-135mm lens vs 15-55mm lens tongue.gif

5. easier to hold..

so far this is wat i can think of.. will add if can think of any.. smile.gif
more than rm300 ler..
dunno.. i just use 1 AF point no matter what i shoot.. icon_rolleyes.gif
