Nikon D40 Review at DCResource

December 4, 2006 | Mark Goldstein | Digital SLR Cameras | Comment |

Nikon D40DCResource have published their review of the new Nikon D40 entry level DSLR camera.

“Overall, the D40 took excellent quality photos, which is just what you’d expect from a digital SLR. Exposure was usually spot-on, though the camera blew out the highlights in two sample photos—I think this is a metering issue. Colors were very saturated—Nikon definitely tuned this camera toward the consumer audience. Sharpness was just right: not too sharp, not too soft. As you saw in the previous example, noise levels are very low through ISO 800. The one real negative here is purple fringing: the kit lens produces quite a bit of it. One way to reduce this annoyance is to close down the aperture a bit (use a higher F-number).”
