Nikon D40x Review BY: J. Keenan, DigitalCameraReview.com Contributor PUBLISHED: 8/24/2007 Nikon D40x Review Article ContentsNikon D40x Review Image Gallery When Nikon introduced the D40x back in March of this year, they noted that it "...maintains the ...
Excellent size and form factor. Gorgeous photos. Exceptional user interface. More features than an airplane.
Autofocus only supported with AFS and AFI lenses.
If you’re looking for a DSLR that will last you for the next five years, you won’t find a better candidate than the D40x. It’s just about the best value proposition in the under-$1,000 digital SLR category. In a crowded field of contende...

Excellent image quality; improved resolution over D40; well-chosen features; excellent interface for shooting and viewing images; very useful in-camera help system.
No depth of field preview or exposure bracketing; lacks dust-control system found in competitors.
If you’re a novice photographer looking to move up to a DSLR, choosing the D40x over the D40 will mostly come down to whether you want more megapixels (for bigger prints and more resolution for better cropping), a faster burst mode, and a slight...
When I first received the press release for the D40x, my jaw dropped. "What in the heck are they thinking?" was my first ponder. After all, the original D40 came out just a mere five months earlier. After spending some good time with both cameras thou...
Abstract: Barely four months after the introduction of the original D40 - which incidentally was on its way to becoming quite a popular camera - Nikon have released a follow up called the D40X. From the outside there is nothing to distinguish the Nikon D40X from...
Four million more pixels to play with than its baby brother the Nikon D40, improved capture rate (up fom 2.5fps), plus longer life battery (up from 470 shots from a single charge)
These upgraded features are not particularly significant to existing users and don't make a massive difference to operation or image quality, though they do bring the product into sync with the line ups of its rivals (notably Canon's 400D).
For us, the D40x doesn't quite marry the D40's combination of user friendliness, image quality and build to price as successfully as its predecessor, and is unashamedly a product born from the desire/need to be competitive in a crowded and cut-throat...
Smallest Nikon SLR to date, great for travel and all-day carry
Quiet shutter and AF operation: a very "polite" camera
Great dynamic range, one of the best weve seen
Excellent high-ISO performance
Very well laid-out controls, fewer buttons ye...
Only 3 AF regions
Auto white balance setting doesnt handle household incandescent lighting well
Kit lens shows dramatic flare, well in from the corners
Chromatic aberration is also high at wide angle
No Autofocus with non AF-S lenses
Limited support f...
Nikon really shocked the market with the D40. Just four months later they did it again with the Nikon D40x. Its jump to 10 megapixels brought more than just resolution enhancements, it brought a new shutter, slightly greater speed, and, surprisingly, b...
Abstract: Less than four months after introducing their entry-level D40 digital SLR, Nikon released a fancier version, known as the D40x. I think its safe to assume that a lot of D40 owners werent entirely pleased with this news! The original D40 brought ea...
