I've just got myself a D40, with a tripod and all its original set at a bargain. I'm playing around with it and I think, I could start a topic on digital SLR cameras so as to learn and share the photographic skills and knowledge.

I have read up the reviews on the differences between D40 and D40x. The few differences are:-
1) D40: US$599 body and lens vs D40x: US$799 body
2) D40: 1/500 vs D40x: 1/200
3) D40: 200-1600 1EV steps + HI1 vs D40x: 100-1600 1EV steps + HI1
4) D40: 2.5 fps vs D40x: 3 fps
I'm no expert in SLR so I would like to ask: With the above stated differences (apart from the price), do you consider the 3 as major differences? (2 to 4)
In this section of DSLR, it doesn't have to be a Nikon, any brand will do fine. Please also share the weakness and strength of the camera. :
