 Nikon D40 DSLR review at PhotographyBLOG : DIWA member Mark Goldstein from PhotographyBLOG has reviewed the Nikon D40 digital SLR camera. The Nikon D40’s body is light and compact, making it easy to carry anywhere, and its design incorporates fewer potentially confusing controls and other distractions, allowing anyone to take breathtaking pictures while eliminating the need to "learn" photography. Nikon’s exclusive 3D Color Matrix Metering II assures accurate exposure control even in difficult lighting conditions. For those who want more control, alternative exposure control tools such as spot metering, center-weighted metering and exposure compensation are also available.

 Nikon D40 camera - 6 Megapixel
According to Mark Goldstein: "The Nikon D40 produced images of excellent quality during the review period. The 6 Megapixel images are slightly soft straight out of the camera and ideally require some further sharpening in an application like Adobe Photoshop, or you can change the in-camera sharpening to one of six different levels. The Nikon D40 handled chromatic aberrations well, with limited purple fringing effects appearing only in very high contrast situations."
Nikon D40 DSLR camera - Flash photography
Mark continues: "The built-in flash worked well indoors with no red-eye and good overall exposure. The night photograph was excellent, with the maximum shutter speed of 30 seconds and the Bulb mode offering lots of scope for creative night photography. The Nikon D40's most impressive feature in terms of image quality is the extensive and very usable ISO range of 200-3200. ISO 200-800 is virtually noise-free, whilst ISO 1600 produces acceptable results, and even ISO 3200 is OK for small print sizes." You want to learn more about the Nikon digital SLR camera?

About PhotographyBLOG
Mark Goldstein started his very active website PhotographyBLOG in January 2003. At first the one and only purpose was to let this site function as one of those popular web logs with Photography as main topic. But as we all know Photography is a pretty big subject to publish about so Mark decided to focus on some hot key points like mentioning all new introductions, reviews, reports from events like PMA and Photokina, sharing some impressive and creative photos and Mark's sole perspective of his feeling about this fascinating world of Digital Imaging. Mark is based in the UK, but his eagle-eye focuses global.
