Nikon announces the new D40, a downgrade to the D50, but I think consumers will benefit in the long run, meaning excellent image quality and noise reduction, even at high ISOs for a good price.  It’s nice to see a company go for quality instead of quantity in this day and age.  Check the quick specs below or go to the full specs page here.
