Isn’t it time you switched from simple snapshots

to great pictures? If so, then get to know the fun,

easy-to-use Nikon D40. Now you can capture

spectacular pictures using the type of digital and

optical technologies that professionals use, but

without the complications and calculations that

SLR photography once required. Let Nikon’s

cutting-edge technology do all the work for you. Just

look through the viewfinder and press a button

for wonderful pictures you’ll be proud of. It’s never

been easier to capture the moments of your life so

beautifully, and that is certainly worth celebrating.

Less Complication,

More Celebration

Shoot with ease:

Simple, user-friendly operation

Be ready: Fast response

See it clearly: Bright viewfinder

Keep moving: Compact, lightweight

• Autofocus is supported only with AF-S and AF-I CPU lenses, which are equipped with an autofocus motor.

Stay charged:

Strong, long-lasting battery

•Lens: AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED •Exposure mode: [A] 1/250 second, f/2.8 •White balance: Auto •Sensitivity: ISO-equiv. 200

Less Science Fiction,

More Magic

It’s never been easier to take amazing pictures

Great pictures have

never been easier

Great pictures used to require complicated

and cumbersome equipment along with years

of experience. Not any more. The D40 is

compact, lightweight and designed specifi-

cally for ease of use, yet contains all the top-

quality, high-performance technologies that

you expect from a Nikon digital SLR. And

with world-famous Nikkor lenses, you know

you have the sharpest and most reliable

optical performance available. All in a camera

light enough to carry with you

everywhere. Beautiful

photography has

never been easier.

The large, bright

2.5-inch LCD monitor lets you see your images clearly, while simple help menus are always easy to navigate.

A fundamental rule of photography:

great images come from great

lenses. When it comes to quality,

Nikkor lenses stand alone in terms of

color, clarity and sharpness. Try the

D40 with a compact telephoto

Zoom-Nikkor lens for

family sporting events

and beautiful nature

photography. And

wide-angle Zoom-

Nikkor lenses are ideal

for everything from

everyday picture-taking to

capturing breathtaking landscape

shots during your vacation.

•Lens: AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 12-24mm f/4G IF-ED •Exposure mode: [AUTO] 1/320 second, f/9 •White balance: Auto •Sensitivity: ISO-equiv. 200

Less Waiting,

More Wonder

Speed and accuracy to act on the moment

A fraction of a second can last forever

Some of life’s most powerful moments are

also the shortest: your daughter after her

first ballet lesson; your son as he scores the

winning goal; your dog catching that first

Frisbee. Did you capture the decisive

moment? Missing it can be frustrating, but

with the D40 those days are over. Just turn

it on for a near-instant response (0.18

seconds) and a fast, razor-sharp autofocus.

Shoot and voila! Your special moments are

saved perfectly.

’

Now you can enjoy consistently fast

and accurate autofocus in nearly any

situation. Whether it’s the beach, the

soccer field or an amusement park,

the D40’s advanced technology gives

you sharp, clear focusing — even

after sundown. It’s all because of

Nikon’s exclusive focusing system

called the 3-area Multi-CAM 530 AF

Sensor Module. You don’t need to

remember the name, but isn’t it nice

to know it’s there?

•Lens: AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 17-55mm f/2.8G IF-ED •Exposure mode: [A] 1/1600 second, f/5 •White balance: Auto •Sensitivity: ISO-equiv. 200

Adjust the focus automatically or manually. It’s also possible to select a focus area and use focus lock, which lets you recompose a picture.

Take up to 100 action shots at approx. 2.5 frames per second using Continuous Shooting Mode.

Less Night, More Light

Let Nikon flash technology illuminate your images

Simply brilliant: Nikon flash technology

Light is essential to great pictures. That’s

why the D40 comes with Nikon’s

unmatched flash technology. Forget about

washed-out, unnatural color. The D40

provides the right light — even in low-light

or backlit situations. Just use Auto mode

and Nikon will do the calculations for you.

The result: subtle, superb images.

For more sophisticated flash photography,

try Nikon’s external Speedlights. When

combined with the D40, the advanced

Creative Lighting System turns the darkest

situations into dazzling photo opportunities.

The D40 offers the most consistent

flash exposures because Nikon’s

industry-leading i-TTL (Through The

Lens) technology is built right in.

Before each shot, the camera

evaluates the scene to calculate ideal

lighting. With every picture comes a

new calculation and ideal exposure.

Instantly. No extra buttons, no

complicated procedures. Just point

and shoot and the D40 does all the

work. Flash photography has never

been easier or more accurate.

Four flash modes are available: Auto flash, Red-eye reduction, Slow sync and Rear curtain sync.

Nikon’s exclusive i-TTL flash control works accurately even with reflective objects in the background.

Get better shots in almost any situation. Each of the eight Digital Vari-Program modes is designed to calculate the best settings for your scene automatically. Simply choose one, or select AUTO and let the D40 do all the work.

AUTO: This automatic “point-and-shoot” mode lets you concentrate on getting the shot. Settings are controlled automatically to match shooting conditions.

Auto (Flash Off): Captures low-light situations without the Built-in Flash by using available light and boosting light sensitivity. Whether it’s a museum, concert or school play, you’re ready whenever flash photography is not allowed.

Portrait: Select this mode when you want a sophisticated, professional-looking portrait with your subject sharply focused and the background stylishly softened.

Landscape: This mode ensures beautiful pictures of landscapes, buildings and other large-scale subjects. It’s also ideal for shooting groups of friends and family with a backdrop of beautiful scenery.

Child: Capture beautifully expressive images of children with Child mode. Your pictures will feature natural skin tones while clearly and vividly rendering clothing and background details.

Sports: High shutter speeds freeze motion for dynamic action shots where the main subject stands out clearly. The camera tracks your subject, adjusting the focus with split-second response.

Close Up: Discover the hidden beauty in flowers, coins, insects and other small treasures. Close Up mode renders every detail of the foreground, while a softened background helps your subject stand out. Use a tripod to get the sharpest results.

Night Portrait: This mode focuses on the closest subject in a lowlight situation and then calculates a balanced exposure for both the foreground and the background. For the sharpest pictures, a tripod is recommended.
