Cameras dont take pics, People do>
I have some old great shots shot with a pin hole camera but i do like my Nikons for the versititly of diferent lenses
I'm looking into buying a digital camera at the moment. How much was the Nikon D40x and does it have a video function?
Cheers.
If you go for NIKON, which I like a lot I would recommend to buy a Nikon with an AF-S DX 18-105/3,5-5,6 ED VR as a set lens.Quote:

I'll probably go with Nikon as I already have a few lenses from the analogue SLRs I used to use. Still no idea on price though. The new D3100 is about 25000 baht I think and has video capability. What's the deal with the D40x, does anyone know?
D40x is a great camera. I think at the time it was 21000 baht, but that has been a few years ago
No video mode then? Might opt for the new D3100. Thanks for the info guys.
No video and that is fine by me.
Those lenses have autofocus probably but no own autofocus motor. The entry level cameras today don't have their own motor any more. They rely on motors in the lens.Quote:

For good video including autofocus you are looking for a D7000 or equally new. The older ones including the D90 have video but no autofocus for video.
Some real cool pics of tland.
if ur going to buy ONE nikor lense get the 18-200 vr. its costly about $600 but well worth it,. Usually it is the only lens i carry
as far as cameras look at the 3100

Thanks for all the info guys! I just checked out the Nikon D3100 and guess what? It has video capability for all of a whopping 10 minutes. Not really what I'd hoped for. Any of you guys using a camcorder and have any recommendations?
been looking for a new nikon, thanks for the information
