[QUOTE="anjz, post: 978, member: 259"] I went from a D40x, through a D80 and then to a D90. I can tell you that, if your uncle is already into photography, he will appreciate the D90. The settings in the D40 are mostly menu-based and it takes a relatively long time to make changes to, say, ISO. The D90 makes it much easier to make changes and if your uncle already has some experience and likes to get his camera out of auto mode, the D90 is the way to go. If he very occasionally wants to stick his camera in Aperture-priority or Shutter-priority and otherwise stick to the scene modes, then the D40 is acceptable. Note also that the D40 (without the "x") has 1/2 the megapixels of the D90. [/QUOTE]
