Nikon D40 Digital SLR Review

Pop Photo have published their review of the new Nikon D40 Digital SLR, it features a 6 megapixel sensor, a new compact body (although it's not as small as the Olympus E-400), a 2.5" screen, ISO 200 - 1600, 2.5fps shooting, a near-instant startup of 0.18 seconds. Available from Amazon UK for £389 with kit lens.

"The Nikon D40 isn't for everyone, but it will certainly appeal to first-time DSLR buyers who want an excellent camera with controls and features that they can grow into and eventually master. It outperforms any compact camera in its price range, and while it has competition from other entry-level DSLRs (especially the Pentax K100D with Shake Reduction) it's a proud member of the Nikon family."
