If you've ever wondered why your vacation pictures don't look as good as those magnificent landscapes and flattering portraits seen in countless glossy magazines, chances are you just haven't found the right camera. Nikon today introduced the new D40 digital SLR camera that's designed to offer consumers the ability to get higher quality, impressive looking pictures with the press of a button. While digital SLR cameras are extremely popular among professional photographers, some consumers have shied away from them because they are larger than compact digital cameras and some models can be complicated to the uninitiated user. Nikon addressed these concerns and more by designing the D40 as an ultra-compact, lightweight, 6.1-effective megapixel digital SLR camera with simplified new features, exceptional handling speed, and a redesigned, visually-intuitive menu system that brings digital SLR cameras to a whole new level of simplicity. Extraordinary Nikon Image Quality The D40 offers high-resolution image quality made possible by Nikon's high performance 6.1-megapixel Nikon DX format CCD imaging sensor and exclusive Nikon image processing engine, assuring stunning sharpness and color. Easy Operation with Intuitive Controls Intuitive controls make the D40 point-and-shoot simple, enabling even first-time SLR users to capture beautiful memories perfectly. Nikons Smallest Digital SLR Ever! Beautifully styled, compact and lightweight, the D40 makes high performance digital SLR photography easier and more convenient than ever. Fast Startup with Instant Shutter Response Fast startup combined with super-fast shutter response and rapid-action shooting at up to 2.5 frames per second makes it easy to freeze special moments instantly. Compact, lightweight and designed exclusively for use with Nikon DX-format digital SLRs, this ultra-compact 3x zoom offers Nikkor sharpness and versatility in a wide variety of shooting situations.
