PLEASE NOTE: The Nikon D40/D40X are no longer available. Please check the Nikon D60 and Nikon D90 as our recommended alternatives.

Contrary to expectation, the Nikon D40X is not a replacement for the D40. The key difference between the newer D40X and the Nikon D40 is in the CCD resolution, increased from just 6.1 megapixels to 10.2; the D40X has a slightly lower sensitivity limit, at 100 ISO, compared to 200 for the D40; the newer technology in the D40X also allows it to squeeze an extra 50 shots (520 in total) from a fully charged battery.

Nikon D40X announcement
26/03/2007 by paul
Update:

We have it on good authority that the new Nikon D40X twin kit arrived at Nikon this morning (26/3). Stock should be with us by the end of the week so, if you've not done so already, please place your order now. Price $1399.

Update:

We've been given pricing on a twin lens kit for the D40X, including a standard 18-55mm and 55-200mm pair. Pricing on this kit will be under $1400, but that's unfortunately as specific as we can be at this stage. It appears that the single-lens (18-55mm) kit will also be made available, but we have no confirmation of this as yet.

Pre-orders for the Nikon D40X twin lens kit will be available very soon.

Original message:
Product announcement : Nikon D40X digital SLR

- 10.2 megapixel resolution
- 2.5-inch (6.4cm) LCD
- Rechargeable Li-ion battery (520 images per charge)

Available April '07

(RRP $1399)

The news of the D40X digital SLR coincides with details of an updated Nikon lens, the AF-S DX VR 55-200 mm F4.0-F5.6G IF-ED. This lens features optical vibration reduction (VR), ED glass and Silent Wave Motor (SWM), which allows quick and quiet auto-focus. It is expected that this lens will feature in Nikon's future twin lens kits.
