I recieved this nikon d40 two days ago as a 21st birthday present. I wasn't really all that interested in photography but have taken quite a few over the last few days and am starting to get quite into it.
Basically i was jst interested in what /p/ thinks of the d40? All the reviews and things i have read seem to point towards it being a class camera, but i thought here was a good place to come for a second opinion.

You already have it which means you're not trying to decide whether to buy it or not which means just go enjoy it and don't give a crap about what anyone else says otherwise.

Seconded. If you already have the camera, and you enjoy shooting with it, why do you care what other people think about it? Go and take pictures.

D40 is the most pro camera ever made.

For someone who wasn't into photography to begin with, it's probably the best camera for you.

It isn't all that expensive, but gives you enough control and quality to take some really amazing pictures.

It's a great starter-DSLR. If you find yourself really loving photography, maybe you'll upgrade one day. Otherwise just have fun and take pictures.

Seconded.
It mostly takes a lot of crap due to the autofocus motor issue, which, until you know why it might affect you or if it ever will, is irrelevant.
Other limitations are shooting speed, button layout, options with an external flash, iso and exposure compensation settings. But by the time you understand why those affect you, you'll be about ready to upgrade.

The auto focus motor issue really only effects primes as most of nikons zooms now have motors in them.

Hell even though iam a canonfag now, the only reason i choose my Rebel XT over a D40 was becasue my friend had some glass that i could use with it besides the kit.
