>>285828 I have the D40. I would have waited longer to save more money and gotten a D80 but I was in a rush to get a DSLR. I went with nikon because I already have a 50mm f/1.4 lens, a flash, and need to go look in my attic for a few more fast telephoto lenses from my dad. The D60 has no real advantage over the D40. If you get the D40 you'll have to manually focus most lenses (not much of a problem with fast primes). You'll also have to deal with a crippled AF point system. The kit lens on the D40 is good enough for most stuff but doesn't cut it for sports or portraits. Save the money and get the D80 body if you aren't in a hurry. The D40 doesn't give you much room to develop your skills. The D60 is a D40 with more megapickels (not worth the money).
