meh on ebay it looks like you can get a d40x body for under 200, so why would i buy just the d40? doesn’t make sense to me… just sayin, not trying to bash, but my camera now is a 6mp and i’m not really looking to spend 300 on a camera that isn’t gonna take that much better pics from what i have now ---

Ive said it once i’ll say it again. You dont chase MP’s with a DSLR. ---

When it comes to DSLR’s its all about what kind of glass you have on the front of it (lens) and how good the sensor on the camera is. Megapix don’t mean anything on DSLR’s unless you are planning on printing wall sized pictures. ---
