Nikon D40X is a gorgeous looking camera. Coming from the 10 MP family, it is a treat for the eyes. Great features, Great looks; comparatively light at 522g. But lighter weight means a few things are missing too, like the autofocus mechanism. If you have large hands, you might find this camera grip not fitting in your hands nicely. Features such as dual LCD display, image stabilization and sensor cleaning are lacking.
Nikon has taken a step back by making this camera compatible with only the newer AF-I and AF-S lenses. You can still use the older AF lenses, but the autofocus (which the AF stands for) will not work on this model, leaving you using your manual focus skills for every shot. How you do such a thing!!
Positives include its speed of 3FPS in burst mode. Other positives include a longer-lasting battery and a wider ISO sensitivity of 100 to 1600. When it comes to the camera's overall features and performance, it's still an excellent camera at its performance level.
