Hey /p/,

I'm looking to buy my first digital slr soon. I've shot D80's and D300's before and have used Nikon film cameras since I started shooting. So I'm really leaning to buy a Nikon. I've been looking through ebay for used D80s as I figured people would be selling since the D90 came out. I'm also considering a D40 cause I'm a poorfag, then just buying better glass for it whenever I can. I'm not a pro so would a D40 suffice (I'm not really looking to do posters or anything)? Also I'm willing to consider Canons or other types of cameras if you recommend them.

tl;dr
I need an inexpensive digital SLR, RECOMMEND.

Used D80 isn't a bad bet. As has been said a billion times, but is always worth saying, you lose the ability to autofocus with a huge portion of Nikon's catalog, and the little viewfinder of the D40 isn't exactly optimal for AF. D80 doesn't present that problem.
