D40 is a fine camera that will work for you until you figure out whether you want to pursue photography further, and then some. Get it.

It's fine. Don't worry about your gear. Seriously. Don't. The D40 is an old standard beginner's camera. It'll get the job done and allow you to learn the basics. Plus, if you don't like photography, it's not a big investment. But for real, don't worry about your gear.

yep thats a fantastic deal. go for it

D40 was my first dslr in 2007, loved it. Small lightwieght and works. Sold it when upgrading but bought another one as a beater (sold that one to pay a bill). Would buy another at the drop of a hat (if the price was right).

$150 might be a a little bit steep. D40 #2 cost me £130 with the kit lens and a 55-200mm a few years back from cashconverters. Admittedly it came in a plastic bag with no box, instructions, strap, memory card, etc.

Depending on where you live you could find better deals, more modern and advanced models can be found for around that price range. If he's a m8 and the camera is minty with low clicks go for it (offer $125 cash money).

D40 was my first DSLR as well, OP. It's a great camera that still holds up well today for beginners/amauters. Enjoy it and make the most out of it.

>$150
If you lived next to me I would give you a d70 for free

You can get D3xxx bodies for that price.

OP here. I posted on NormieBook, and the friend I mentioned said she'd sell it to me. I sent her a message but she didn't respond.

A friend that we met each other through said he'd buy it for his church. So now she's selling it to him instead.

wow what a cunt

Disgusting. Look for one used on a craiglist type site. Consider buying a D70,80 or 90 since it has the AF motor in the body.

Can anyone identify this model? Worth?

>>3090691
Professor said we can't use our phones.

>>3090418
I used one for 11 years, then the shutter motor died in January this year.

It's amazing to learn. But indeed very outdated. And, depending on the lens, I believe it's pretty overpriced at 150$ if you are in the US.

>>3090692
no. it's a bridge camera.

As said, look for a D90, d3x00 or d40.

You could also get a D200 for that kind of money. Get a cheap screwdrive lens with it, keep your ISO low, and shit all over modern sensor color rendering.

>>3090418
it might not have much life left in it, depending on how your much friend used it. the max shutter count on those is something like 50k. also I can tell you my old d40 kit lens is a fucking mess, those cheap silent wave motors were not built to last. anoher problem with the d40 is it doesn't have an AF motor so you can't use AF with some of the cheap primes or old lenses. $150 is at best a fair price, it's no bargain

>>3090772
And now I really miss my old D200. That was a solid fucking camera.
