Tis a thing of beauty my brain, and in pristine condition as it has hardly been used!!

I've got the D40x. Love it. I'm not a subject matter expert though as I've quite clearly proved time and time again that good camera does not equal good photographer.

I fear that such abilities are more down to genetic predisposition than anything else sg. In any event, let us hope you have more success than you have displayed in your fanciful attempts to "hothouse" your intellect.

Very happy with it. For the price unbeatable I would say - although maybe the equivalent Sony comes close.

Think I'll pop into Jessops today and have a play with one. It really is time to get rid of this crappy little compact.

Fortunately I have a friend who's a pro photographer so I'm going to get some free lessons. Unfortunately all the kit she's recommended comes with a 4 figure price tag!

Thanks sas

Plus getting out and taking some photos would help relieve the bench boredom
