What's Hot: Great Camera, very responsive

What's Not:

Review: This is my first digital SLR and I am thrilled. The camera was only $50.00 more than the Nikon D40X so I figured why not? While relatively expensive (for a camera), I think it is worth the money given the high quaility of the images.

I am still getting used to the menus and all the options available. There is a ton of great resources to learn from on the web abd YOUTube.

I did also buy an additional lense for this camera. (SIGMA 70-300mm 70-300 Telephoto LENS KIT FOR NIKON D60 D40X)

The lense that comes with the camera is ok, but the telephoto
brings a whole new level to the photographic experience.

I would recommend this camera :)
