I bought the D40X yesterday from my local dealer because I am new to cameras and having someone in person that I can refer to sounded better to me than just having a forum, even though forums are great, but sometimes having a go-to guy or place can be better in emergency situations.

I did read up on the D40 and it did sound like a great camera but I could never live with myself knowing that there is an "X" version of my camera if I bought the D40.

I agree that usually online one can find prices super cheap compared to retail but like Frog said;

Yeah I had read from this forum that the D40X would not be compatible with the other lenses already available from Nikon but I guess I'll just have to wait 'till Nikon makes new ones available for my camera.

I won't be buying anything else soon since my recent purchase cleaned me out! But I'll probably start buying online for camera stuff after this.:thumbsup:

Thanks John!

P.S. The camera is freaking cool!
