Go to a shop and try out a Canon 5D, then switch back to a D40... and then you will understand. brows.gif

shieyt, i really2 dun wan 2nd hand unit...
my cousin oso worried that the d40 cant autofocus sweat.gif
it can, can it? aiyo... choices.. hmm. maybe i'll stick to d40.
or get the d50.. warghh! im so confused tongue.gif
*
Can or cant autofocus with D40 depends on what lens loh, if its Nikkor AF-S or Sigma HSM lenses, then no problem pairing with D40 at all. If not, then you'll have to manual focus loh. If can find a good condition D50 or D70 or D70s, go get them if you dun mind owning a used unit. laugh.gif

you or any of your friends experiencing any bad things happened when the bought 2nd hand unit?
d50 is quite old for a second hand, 1 or 1 1/2 years or more sweat.gif
the kit lens that comes with the d40 can auto focus right?
*
Sorry, never have any experiences on a used unit. Try buy an used unit from camera shop, usually they'll give you few months warranty on it. Of course D40 can auto focus with the kit lens, check the first page of this thread to see what lenses can autofocus with D40/40x. icon_rolleyes.gif

Eh, was also wondering. Can I get the D40 body only? If possible I want the D40 + AF-S DX VR 18-200mm. Don't want the kit lens. I've been wanting a DSLR for a long, long time. Few more months to go! =D

Edited: Sorry, I want the AF-S DX VR 55-200mm lens, not the 18-200mm. If D40 + kit + AF-S DX VR 55-200mm around how much eh?
*
A new D40 kit should be around RM1.8k~1.9k now and the Nikkor 55-200mm VR will be about RM800. If you are lucky, you might be able to get it around RM2.5k ~2.6k with those free goodies! Wait another weeks or two when D300 is hot on sales, the price of other models will most probably go down a bit. icon_rolleyes.gif

Hmm white 70-200VR.. Not bad oso wat

Nikon only got 2 lens in white, the 70-200mmVR f/2.8 and the 28-70mm f/2.8! When you are using these lens, from far, you will look like as if you are using Canon system! icon_rolleyes.gif

Call them or email them, ask them to quote the price to you. So, you'll know roughly how much will it cost, then on that day, bargain 9 9 with them again! laugh.gif

Ask whoever who bought camera from there before for the email address or tel. no. Or ask those who bought DSLR from the shop before to go with you when you buy the camera so they can help you bargain with the sales person there! icon_rolleyes.gif

Try ask some forumers in here to accompany with you, I'm sure they'll be gladly to help you to buy your new camera, if you treat them yum cha after that! laugh.gif
My advice is try go survey some camera shops that is recommended by forumers in here, chat with the sales person there, ask whatever questions you dunno, see how's their customer service and the buy from the shops that you have the best service. Service always come first! icon_rolleyes.gif
