Purchase a D60 Kit. They're on sale at Best Buy and Future Shop.

You'll appreciate the sensor cleaning, the image size, and the rest. It will only be around 50-100 bucks more than a D40 kit.

Edit: I just looked it up, it's actually the same price as a D60 Kit due to the fact that D40s are harder to get hold of.

Assuming it has the stock 18-55, I would say $325-350 is reasonable.

Used D40 bodies are sold at 380^^...D60 at Best Buy is sold at 499.99 (non-VR 18-55) with a free Lowerpro 180 AW bag ($80)...D40s are much harder to find.

With tax its still $565, more than $200 what the D40 and lens costs used.

Sensor cleaning and more MPs are worth $100?

Sensor cleaning and more MPs...worth it for me actually, don't know about the OP. Anyways, was just throwing my 5 kopecks out there^^...the free bag is a great deal o.O.

Even if you had to buy the bag, the D40 still saves more than $100. Sensor cleaning just buys more time between manual cleanings where the 10MP helps if you're printing big...really big.

...or using a cruddy 55-200 VR and constantly cropping images to get closer...at least I don't have to do that on my Sony with a 75-300.

Then buy a 70-300VR. Im sure you can afford it.

The question is not whether I can afford it...the question is whether I want to pay that much. I'm naturally frugal. Plus, if I want to do super zoom photography anyway, am I not better off getting a Canon SX1IS or a Sony DSC-HX1...? They beat a 300mm face down.

If you say so.

Fact. Although the quality may suffer.

I'm guessing this is a fact as well.

I guess image quality was not apart of that face.
