Nikon D40 funnin'

I just picked up a Nikon D40 SLR digital camera and wanted to show a picture of the result from this beauty. A little touch up work using Nikon Capture NX and cropped.

My wife has a D40x and I am amazed at how detailed and clear the images from this thing are. You can take a picture of a fly and then zoom and see its beady little eyes very clearly. Nice picture.

Nice work!

I have a D300 that I absolutely LOVE! Nikon's entire digital SLR line is fantastic. I have wetdreams of getting a D3!

Thanks! I'm not the professional by any stretch of the imagination but it's a fun hobby for sure.

This photo isn't gun related but I just returned from a outing and found this photo to be outstanding and had to share it!

I'm just amazed by the detail from this Nikon.

Very nice photography All86. I especially like the way you arranged the bullets in the gun case around the XD. Nice lighting techniques made for some great photos!

My photo guy uses a D80 commercially with a D40 as backup. Good cameras all around.
