Photography whores step inside.

I could go on a long rant about Canon products feel like dog shit until you get to the pro level and they have the full mag cases but I’ll just leave it at that. Nikon passes the “could I beat someone to death and still have it function” test, Canon consumer does not. Canon’s optics are slightly faster, but I tend to prefer the ergonomics of the Nikon (canon has odd button arrangements that are entirely to awkward to make real adjustments). “Quality” depends on what level you buy. If you can spring it, get the D70, gives you a few more options if you get heavy into the addiction and if not it still functions perfectly as a point and shoot.

The D70’s a bit much. Do you have any input/experience on the D40x?
