Bit the bullet

[Guidofisherman]

I finally decided to get my first DSLR. My small P&S camera has been acting up lately so I convinced myself and my wife that WE needed a new camera. I had been searching and reading for many months and set my critera as:

1. small, lightweight DSLR

2.limited printing, mostly web use

3.quality glass

4.don't want to change a lot of lenses

5.plus a few other criteria.

 

I used the Internet to search prices then bought locally from the Nikon dealer who matched and went even better. I got a Nikon D40 with an 18-200 VR zoom. Once I figure out which way the camera faces, I'll post a few shots. It should be a fun learning curve compared to my old film DSLR.
