Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I sold it...I actually had a thread up here first to sell it bc it was in perfect shape - I only had it for about 7 mths maybe? And then my hubby got me the D90 for my Christmas present, I almost had a heart attack, I was SO freakin' surprised! A couple people here really wanted it, but I don't think it was the right time to buy (right after xmas). So, I sold it via Craig's list. Basically brand new. Shoot, wish I woulda known then you were interested in cameras !

| I just went & looked, too. I don't see you posting many pics, Ann. Actually, I don't think I've ever seen pics of Wylie. These of Marcel were FABULOUS!!! He is such a little hunk!

I captured a quickie of Wylie recently just after he woke from a nap - note the crooked fur and crooked ear - this is so Wy, my lovebug .

I have the same problem with my gang - they see the camera come out and they go nuts. Thats why I NEED a better camera that doesn't hesitate when I push the button. By the time my camera finally snaps a picture, the 'subject' is long gone!

Another major difference is this (and I think this also applies to the D60) - the D40 is more limited in its lens choices bc it does not have a lens focus motor on board. That means, you have to buy lenses that have their own lens focus motor (IN the lens) - and these are more limited. I think this is the main drawback to both the D40 and the D60. One of THE most popular lenses of all time is the Nikkor 50mm 1.8 - you can't be without it and it's only about $100 (for a lens, that's dirt cheap). On the D40, it will NOT auto focus bc there is no motor on this lens. Sure, you can manually focus it, and that can be fun too - but not always realistic. But on the D70, D80, D90, etc -- that lens and most others will focus just fine bc they don't require the special lenses. See what I mean? The D40 is *great* if you want a great price, a small/light camera body, and don't mind more limited lens choices. D40 Review D90 Review

| I have the Rebel XT -- In addition to the kit lens (18 - 55 mm, F3.5-5.6 EF-S lens ), I bought a Quantaray (Ritz camera brand and I wish I had stuck with a Canon lens!) telephoto/zoom 70-300mm f/4-5.6 lens -- it is not the best (slow), wish I could afford a faster telephoto, or at least learn enough to think I deserve one! I also bought the 50mm f/1.8 -- the reason I got it was not the distance so much as the kit lens covers 50 mm but it was for the speed of the lens. It is great for nice portrait shots -- gives better bokeh (the blurred background). The faster the lens (smaller f number) the better they perform in low light conditions too. I like the prime lenses and will probably buy the 85 mm f/1.8 too. But what I really want is one of those great white barrelled telephotos for sports photography. There is a cheap one for @ $1200 that I might have to try before football season is over. There are a couple of sites online that actually let you rent a lens. That way you can decide if the lens does what you want before you shell out the bucks for it. I am thinking about looking around to see if they would actually rent one of the really fast super-telephotos. AS far as Canon or Nikon -- I don't thnkthere is much difference. It all depends on where you find the best deal. If you have a friend with a DSLR, might want to get the same camera so you can trade lenses occasionally.

| You can video with the Nikon D90?! Ohhh man, now I know! LOL. Just kidding - I'm very happy with my Rebel XS but it would be nice to have high quality videos. I've just got my point and shoot video but it's annoying having to have two cameras if I may want to take video/pictures at the same time or whatever. Well, whenever I decide to upgrade my Canon, I'll go with one that videos in the future.

I have just got a Canon Rebel after reading quite a few write ups. I haven't used it yet, as I need time to set aside, to learn the best way to take shots with it, I have heard the automatic setting is not brilliant would you agree? I am a total novice to SLR Digital camera's I have a very good Digital standard one too, but wanted more professional results, What model was your photo taken. It is stunning.
