The Road Warrior Posted December 19, 2011 Share Posted December 19, 2011 Hi everyone, Decided to sell my Nikon D40X as thinking about an upgrade. This is an excellent entry level DSLR in new condition, not a scratch on it. What you will receive will be the camera body with original 'Version II' AF-S DX 18-55 mm kit lens, charger, Nikon strap, software, all in the original box as if it’s just been brought brand new. In addition will include a 2MB SD card so basically everything you need to start using it. Will also include a book I brought which talks you through how to get the best results out of this particular model. Main reason I brought it was to take photos of my kids since it’s so fast and responsive and it’s always delivered superbly. Will make a perfect Christmas present.

Noz Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 Have you got any pictures that you've taken with this camera handy? I'd like to spend a bit of money grabbing shots and am looking at a level entry camera. I assume you can get different lenses for this?

The Road Warrior Posted December 23, 2011 Author Share Posted December 23, 2011 The pics in this post were taken using this camera: http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?247440-2006-mondeo-st-tdci-in-performance-blue&highlight=mondeo Also took these: Yes, lenses are interchangeable. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Road Warrior Posted December 29, 2011 Author Share Posted December 29, 2011 BTW checked the number of shutter actuations on the Nikon today and it is 9630. This can be used as good reference to determine how much use the camera has had. Since the shutter will last more than 150,000 actuations it shows how little this camera has been used.

monsween Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 My missus has this camera and it's a fanatstic bit of kit. Free bump and good price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Road Warrior Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 Thanks for the free bump Monsween! Have now found the camera I want so will let this go for £200 + delivery if someone buys this week. If not it will be going to a camera shop.

probrox Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 Just spoke the wife and I think I've persuaded her to buy me this. I'll let you know tonight for sure if thats ok. Can you do it for £200 delivered by any chance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monsween Posted January 4, 2012 Share Posted January 4, 2012 That's a bloody bargain. I payed 250quid for mine last month and that was a bargain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Road Warrior Posted January 4, 2012 Author Share Posted January 4, 2012 £200 + delivery is the lowest I'll go. Probox - I see you're in Suffolk, happy to meet you halfway rather than deliver due to this being a very fragile piece of kit. PM me if interested. Thanks.
