PC Advisor has posted a review of the Nikon D40x. Here’s a quick summary of the review:
“Taking the Nikon D40x along to an advertising shoot for some behind-the-scenes, reportage-style portraits, the camera metered well on a mix of extreme light and shadow, producing pleasingly even exposures, natural if slightly cool colours and a competent level of sharpness given the DSLR’s amateur status.
With light sensitivity ranging from ISO 100 all the way to ISO 3200, there’s obviously the issue of image noise –– tiny, grain-like speckles that resemble a fuzzy TV picture –– intruding into shadow. Though it’s visible at higher settings, Nikon has done a good job of keeping the Nikon D40x’s shots usable, and converting such low-light images to black and white, if desired, solves the problem.
Despite Nikon’s “nobody could better the D40 so we decided to do it ourselves” flippancy, owners of the D40 shouldn’t feel pressure to update, the Nikon D40x version’s additions have generally been made to bring the camera’s specs up to match competitors. The Nikon D40x is a dream to handle and delivers the goods. It’ll be interesting to see where Nikon goes with its camera range next.”
