Is the camera armour for the Niknon D40 compatible with the the Nikon D60?

I’m having real trouble finding armour for the D60 and wondered if the D40 rmour was compatible? It would definetly explain why I’m unable to find the armour for the D60!

The D40 and D60 are built on the same body there are some hardware and software differences inside but the outside is the same so yes it will. take you D60 to your local camera store and have them put it on before you buy so you can make sure it still gives you a comoratable feel. I put is on my D40 but did not like the feel of the armor on my D300

Understanding Nikon SLR Digital Cameras

There are quite a lot of Nikon SLR digital cameras in the market that make for worthy investments. One of these is the Nikon D90. The Nikon D90 is one of the Nikon SLR digital cameras that are suitable for beginners and casual users. Because of they are not concerned about the kit lens.

However, the Nikon D90 gets plus points for having the brand’s famous intuitive layout and video capabilities. I was already thinking of getting the Nikon D90 even though what I really wanted was the D300, because of its sturdy magnesium body and weatherproof features.

The D300 and D90 have the same sensor and ISO capability range. Various reviews on Nikon SLR digital cameras say that the D300 pales in comparison to D90 in terms of noise reduction. The Nikon D90 also has a superb control layout; single button choices are available on the left side of the screen which allows you to easily access image quality, white balance, ISO, and view previous shots.

The D90 also has video capabilities, but unhappily the video feature fails to meet expectations because of its lack of autofocus and sound. It is makes for a good extra feature, but it’s lacking in essential features that would’ve made it a good video camera.

Although many users like the kit lens that comes with the D90, but I think you can get better zooms from Nikon that falls within the same price range of the D90. Reportedly $400 is the selling price for the 18-105mm Vibration Reduction (VR). Nikon 70-300mm VR for around $485 has a far better build with a metal mount and rubber gasket.

But the kit lens that comes with the D90 has no rubber gasket and plastic mount, which makes it feel a bit cheap compared to the 70-300mm VR. If all you need is basic lens and you are a casual or average user, then the Nikon D90 kit lens would probably do.

But you can buy Nikon 70-300 VR if you are aspiring to go semi pro or pro. In a word, as a part of Nikon SLR Digital Cameras, the Nikon D90 is a great camera even though it does lack in the weather proofing department.

Should I upgrade my Nikon dSLR or my kit lens?

Hi folks!
I have a Nikon D40 and a 18-55 af-s 3.5-5.6 GII ED (non vr) kit lens.
I am looking at Nikon D90 and its 18-105 vr but can’t afford both.
Do you think I should stretch to buy the D90 and shoot with my current kit lens, or get 18-105 vr with my D40?
What would be better upgrade in terms of image quality?
Thanks!!

Good glass is forever (well, almost forever). DSLR bodies are transient since they’re replaced every 3 to 5 years.

So keep your D40 and begin investing in lenses. I’ll freely admit to being biased against variable aperture zoom lenses. The idea of losing lens speed when zooming is unacceptable in my opinion. The 18-105mm f3.5-5.6 represents a 1 1/3 stop loss in shutter speed. What does that mean? Suppose you’re shooting at 18mm at f3.5 at ISO 400 and your shutter speed is 1/125 sec. If you zoom out to 105mm your f-stop becomes f5.6 and your shutter speed will drop to ~ 1/40 sec. To compensate for this you’d have to increase your ISO to 1000 to keep your shutter speed at 1/125sec. (ISO 1000 is 1 1/3 stops faster than ISO 400).

I suggest investing in the AF-S VR Zoom-Nikkor 70-200mm f2.8G IF-ED lens as your first major upgrade to your system. This is not a cheap lens but with reasonable care your grandchildren will be using it. It is 2/3 of a stop faster than the f3.5 but more importantly its a full 2 stops faster than f5.6 and its a constant aperture from 70mm to 200mm. The f2.8 will also be more useful in low-light photography.

You can keep your 18-55mm kit lens until your budget allows another lens.

If the 70-200mm f2.8 is simply beyond your current budget, I suggest buying the new AF-S Nikkor 50mm f1.4G. A fast prime lens is always useful.

New Nikon D3000 – Nikon D3000 Takes on Canon Rebel XSi

A few years back, Canon was the first to release a sub-$1000 camera with the Rebel 300D. Nikon followed quickly with the Nikon D40, and subsequent releases of Canon and Nikon entry level DSLRs have been able to increase the technology and lower the prices of these highly regarded cameras with each new release. Both Canon and Nikon have had terrific track records in the area of user satisfaction.

So how has Nikon sweetened its pot with the new D3000? There have been some very significant improvements over the extremely popular D40 which has now been discontinued from production. There are also a few improvements over the D60, which is also getting older as camera years go. Here are a few of the improvements over the Nikon D60:

• LCD panel is improved from 2.7″ to 3″
• Autofocus has been upped from 3 point recognition to 11 point recognition
• 3D AF processing
• Starting price is $599 (includes kit lens)

With respect to the Canon Rebel XSi the beginning price point is even lower for the Nikon than it is for the Canon, even though the Canon XSi price tag has been reduced since the release of the Rebel T1i with its newer processor and video capability. Some things to consider as you ponder your camera buying decision.

1. Neither the Nikon D3000 nor the Canon Rebel XSi have video, so if you must have video in your DSLR, you are going to need to spend a bit more to get to the next level, either the Nikon D5000 or the Canon Rebel T1i.
2. Both cameras produce excellent images. This has been true with all the entry level cameras from Nikon and Canon – award winning image quality.
3. Both models allow the use of the interchangeable line of lenses designed for these and much more expensive DSLR cameras. Other lens manufacturers also produce quality lenses for Canon and Nikon that may be less expensive.

Whether you are leaning toward the Nikon D3000 or the Canon Rebel XSi, you will be happy with your choice. The Nikon vs Canon debate will go on no matter which one you choose, but once you make your purchase, you can join in the discussions and fun on forums and camera clubs.
