i'd suggest canon, just because of it has the AF motor and the D40x don't. Lens selection will be your next big issue next time. You'll face problems finding the right lens next time if u use the D40x. While canon L lens are costly, there are other options like sigma and tamron.

You do the choosing man.

the canon want is shure better lar....the af points + ai servo oledy tarpaued D40's 3 point AF. otehr stuff already mentioned above. But be adviced that if you ever slap a 70-200mm on the 350..it will look like a midget with a big pen1s

Check out the market price here http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...4761&hl=vladmir

I would say go for the 350d~!

D40x is around that size also. slap at 70-200 on it also it'll look like midget with a big pen1s

and the D40 doesnt have option for vertical grip. the 350D does...makes it a bigger midget.

u know D40x is better
why settle for 350D?

aiyo...debate again ar ?? BEST GO TEST OUT THE CAMERA YOURSELF la..don't because OTHER said this brand is good or this model is good then you go buy blur blur...w/o knowing what u want.

You might regret later.

The D40X not as good an option as the ageing 350D meh? Hmmm..... I haven't checked out the full specs sheet but I thought it would be a better choice as it has advanced since the days the 350D was launched and upgraded from the original D40. But I only know CANON and I can't really influence this decision except wonder.......

I think u can compare the camera spec such as pros n cons from the opinion of sifu here.

The important issue is which 1 u like n need.

I'd say D40x WB would be better than 350D but with 3 focus points and only AFS lenses?
It's up to him to decide

D40 + 18-200mm VR
D40 + 55-200mm VR
D40 + 70-300mm VR
D40 + 17-55mm F/2.8
D40 + 70-200mm VR F/2.8
D40 + 24-70mm F/2.8
D40 + 105mm VR F/2.8
yum yum..

dun worry D40 wont last u long
u will get another main body and d40 would be ur 2nd body lol

After reading all the reviews around... I think will go for D40x... but if u compare D40x and 400D... I think i will go for 400D... jUst my 2 cents... Go read around, play around.. choose what u want~

D40X + 18-55mm ED II + D40 + 55-200mm VR is a very good starter

Go for Nikon D80 if your budget permit.

Otherwise, I think the Canon 400D is a better choice than the 350D.

The Star's InTech section have many articles on DSLRs (incl. D40X and E-410).

any of the camera is good enough.. it's how u use it is the most important thing

image processing ler, D40 good la...
af points ler, 350D...

sample picture from D40 + 18-55II ---> click HERE

Look like Nikon-nian is more then Canon-nian here...hehehe

What kind of poison is this Its a killer......

Both also got pros and cons ler...

Technology wise ler, i am sure D40 will do better than 350D...
But Focus Points wise ler, 350D definately dapaoed D40... (7FP vs 3FP)

Buy what you need and what u want...
