Nicely done - Probably the greatest advantage of digital (IMHO)is the ability to shoot, test, learn, and adapt quickly - at very little cost. I believe (after...
Roy: I noticed shortly after the introduction of the D40 that the D50 disappeared from the Nikon USA website. It has been the topic of much conjecture whether...
Judy you are very welcome ; I am happy to have helped you through that door [ along with Andy of course] The shots look good . In a few days you will be more...
With the exception of the D2HS which is a special purpose camera the Nikon line-up seems to be geared towards the higher resolution cameras. I expect the D40...
What lense do you consider a "must have"? I currently have a D50, a nikon flash (that I can't remember the model/number on to save my life!), and three...

The Nikon 50mm 1.8 is my favorite lens. It spends 80% of the time on my D50. I have a number of other lenses. Example: Tamron 18-200 DII etc. but if God came...

I like the f1.8 50mm, but the lens I can't, under no circumstances, do without is my Sigma 105mm macro, it would break my heart if I had to give that lens up...
I hope you're going to see this as I have. I opened this up on the computer and couldn't grasp what I was looking at. (don't open the second shot yet) ...
Thanks to all that replied, every one of you has a made a pertinent point. The primary problem is poor composition, it's something I've always struggled with...
It's been off all their lists for a couple of months Roy. It was readily available in Britain after that but it's getting scarce now. We're still getting a...
I'm just glad you've got using it Judy. MF doesn't come easily as the digital cameras don't have very helpful screens but practice makes perfect, or as ...

Jennifer you have a fairly broad range of Focal lengths now so i would advise working with them for a few months and then use the results to determine what...
Yep - I used to have the split image plus a few interchangeable screens for
different reasons. But I don't find manual focusing with the D50 too
difficult....
According to the head of Nikon UK the D40 and D40x were always designed to run side by side, ie the D40x wasn't a rush job to keep up in the pixel race. The...

Jennifer, I'll guess the 80-200 is an f2.8 lens, the newer versions which are 70-200 are faster to focus but probably no better in any other way. I don't think...
Thanks everyone for your suggestions! I'll start checking some of those out and playing a little more with what I've already got. Thanks again! Jennifer...
You too Mike? It's the only even remotely affordable lens for me if I wanted to get serious about surfing photos. With a 1,4x TC as well of course. I guess...
You can get split screens for the D50 for about 70/80$ but you fit them yourself, I'm not sure I fancy that idea! I'm also not that keen on spending that ...

Agree. Besides, with the manual focus lenses, you can still confirm that
subject is in focus with the green light, same as with the AF lenses. ... From:...

The green in-focus light works with manual focus lenses with a maximum
