Hi every body I decided to move to a digital nikon reflex my budget is about 600 dUS dollar (before to be killed by my wife)
who can suggest me a good NIKON digital camera and accessories that I might use also in case of camera future change (lens?, lights?)

given that budget I would recommend going with the Nikon D40or D40x…

ciao Lars

Thanks but, what about NIKON 70 or 80 models? what are the real differences between 40 to 80?
Idid a mistake I put dollar but I was referring to euro (so it is about the double)

I have just bought the Nikon D60 (a revamped D40X) and I am delighted.

I have used the D80 before and I think the main difference is in the AF (9 points for the D80, vs 3 for the D60).

On the other hand, the D60 is lighter, smaller and has better ergonomics IMO. The menu has a brand new interface and photo settings are very quick and easy to modify.

The D60 is more or less in your price range, go for it!
