Digital Camera Review
The Nikon D40 Camera is making the news. Nikon made the new D40 affordable and compact with the point-n-shoot features such as the SLR digital. It is suppose to follow the D50 series, yet it is more affordable. Some of the features are somewhat different, which makes some people wonder if Nikon is not compromising their D50 series.Features - Let's take a look at the features offered with the Nikon D40 Camera. Instead of using old technology and creating a camera with mega pixel control, Nikon created this series with the viewfinder. Nikon also added the short shutter lag with the extremely short viewfinder blackout.
These significant features make the Nikon D40 Camera more appealing. Yet one of the most significantly difference is that you can no longer alter the exposure steps. There is a custom Auto ISO option. This option was available with the D80 series also.
