Thanks for the welcome Will.
Yup the D40x is my first DSLR.
Long story....I wanted and ordered a D80 but got scamed by one of the "Discount" Internet Camera Stores.....Live and Learn.
What came was the D40x without the 18to55mm lens and a 55to200mm instead of the 70to300mm VR I ordered.
After a long battle I did get the 18to55mm lens but nothing else.
But hey the D40x is fine for now...no it's not the D80 but it's still a Nikon.
