Nothing wrong with a D100. Excellent camera, does everything a D-40x does but with less Megapixels. All the Nikon lenses fit, but remember that not all with interface, because the CPUs won't talk to each other  :smiley:

I bought a D40 from amazon the other week and cant rate it high enough! for the money it is superb and has a bundle of features.

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nikon-D40-Zoom-Nikkor-18-55mm-3-5-5-6G/dp/B000KIX65S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1246880456&sr=8-1 (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nikon-D40-Zoom-Nikkor-18-55mm-3-5-5-6G/dp/B000KIX65S/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1246880456&sr=8-1)

if you keep checking the link often the price seems to change quite alot, when i bought it it was at 280 it then went up to 309 then went down to 250! for one day, i was well annoyed but someone got a bargain!
