Nice cam though!
Hi Ingo

The lens that came with the camera is an AF-s, which is motorised. Yes, there is no motor in the body, which is one of the fundamental differences between the D40 and the D80, I gather. The rest is basically the same. It's not what you would call a "cut-down" D80. Most of the features were kept - and others added. For what I want, the 40 suits me better. Not having an AF motor in the body doesn't worry me too much, as all of my lenses are Ai - from the 70's & 80's).

Cheers
Chris

PS - How's Albany? I miss Poughkeepsie/Patterson/Mohonk.
