Nikon D40 Digital SLR Camera - Black (18-55mm Lens Kit)

from: Nikon

December 01, 2006
Nikon have done a fabulous job with the D40. Almost everything about it is right. It is a small camera, so will suit the smaller hands, or if you want to carry less weight. For the prosumer or professional, it is too light, esp. with a larger, heavier lens on the front.

Image quality: 5/5
Features: 4/5
Handling: 4/5
Build: 5/5
Size, weight: 4/5
Lens: 4/5

the only things i would recommend you check out is the lack of a lens motor on the lens mount if you have existing lenses. otherwise, you can use the newer AF-S lenses - they're clearly marked.
also a lack of dedicated hard buttons means that a more serious user of digital SLRs may want to look to the D70s ... Read More:

Nikon ML-L3 Remote Control

My son has one of these to operate his D80. The other day he left it in his jeans and it did 40 minutes at 40°. Luckily my wife spotted it before it went onto the spin cycle.

Anyway, I am pleased to report that after drying out it works as well as it ever did.

Nikon D60 Digital SLR Camera - Black (AF-S 18-55 DX II VR Lens Kit)

from: Nikon

February 20, 2008
Had a toss up recently between this and the Canon EOS1000D. Bought the D40 for my daughter and its a cracking little camera out of the box. Felt good, solid, great quality.

So in the end I plumped for the Canon, just to have a change. The second I took it out the box my mistake was evident - the difference in quality feel to even the D40 is unbelievable. Plasticy feel, cheep non tactile buttons, poor layout on the rear. I was gutted. Straight back in the box and straight back. tata.

So just got the D60 and again, out the box the quality just feels right. Solid, great feel, buttons just right. The D60 is also a slight step up in feel from the D40 with more metal parts and a great VR lens. I'm sure, in the end, there will be ... Read More:

Nikon EN-EL3e Genuine Battery for D300 D200 D80 D100 D70s D70 D50

from: Nikon


"Spare" battery. Pretty much essential for all but the most casual of users. So, if you're using the likes of a D80 and above you're probably a "keen amateur".

Battery. Extra. Genuine Nikon Brand. Good price.

Done.

Nikon Coolpix S210 Digital Camera - Sakura Pink (8.0MP, 3x Optical Zoom) 2.5" LCD

from: Nikon

March 29, 2008
I am pleased with the camera itself but didn't appreciate that delivery was from the Netherlands. As such, the instructions, which appear comprehensive, come in 4 languages but none of them are English. In addition, the battery charger power lead comes with a european pin plug. A UK plug was enclosed but you either need to change the plug yourself or use an adaptor. None of this was apparent when I ordered the camera and whilst not a serious problem, it was certainly frustrating.

Nikon 55-200MM F4.5-5.6G AF-S VR DX Black Lens

from: Nikon

April 20, 2008
I have owned one of these for 18 months. In that time it has broken twice, on both occasions the lens was mounted on the camera and reasonably protected, and I am anything but an action photographer. After the most recent failure Nikon are quoting £130 to fix it, so I think I'm going to call it a day on this particular model. When it was working the image quality was good enough; that is to say it had a number of limitations (fairly widely reviewed) but in most cases images can be fixed by post processing by DX-Pro or similar. The VR kind-of-works, as someone said it's a good way of getting images of blurred sportsmen running across razor sharp grass. It is a good price mind, and perhaps I have been unlucky but it is very flimsy.

Nikon D40, D60 - 52mm High Resolution 3-piece Filter Set (UV, Fluorescent, Polarizer) not nikon brand

from: HeyDig


This is a great little set of 3 filters; UV, polariser and flourescent filters in a nice little case to keep them together. These fit perfectly onto the Nikon D40 with a Nikon 18-55 kit lens and also the Nikkor 55-200 VR lens too & the case is handy for putting them in the big bag so they don't get ruined. They give good results if used in the appropriate manner - I have no complaints!
