Would a vivitar 2600-d work on a Nikon d40 digital camera?

Yes, it will. I just recently surfaced my old 2600-D and tried it out with my D40 and it works perfectly. I believe you need to have the built-in flash setting set to manual, but once you've done that you'll be good to go. After you've got the flash on the camera and powered up you may want to adjust some settings on the flash and in the camera, depending on what you're shooting, of course. I personally use the flash white balance setting set to -1. You may also want the adjust the flash compensation. I find that the best way to find the perfect settings is to just experiment and try out different things. Anyway, I hope that helped! Good luck. -Jesse


Is Nikon d40 a good camera?

In my view, the nikon d40 is not really good one. The most obvious shortcoming of the Nikon D40 camera, is the absence of an autofocus driver in the camera body. What this means, is that if autofocus is important to the way you take pictures, they you are somewhat limited in the number of lenses you can use with the D40. Only about ten percent of the available lenses for the Nikon D40 have autofocus drives built into the lenses. Needless to say, those lenses are considerably more expensive than lenses without autofocus. In addition, most SLR's in this price range, allow you to take pictures in the RAW format, and the D40 is no exception. What is a bit surprising, is that when you take pictures with the RAW and JPEG format at the same time, the D40 only uses a very basic JPEG format. For a camera in this price range I would have expected better. You can have a see. http://www.dinodirect.com/

Why is the Nikon d40's battery life so short compared with others like the Nikon d50?

The nikon D40 camera is an entry level model in the nikon line up of digital SLR's. It was made with the the intention of capturing an audience of consumers that would conventionally purchase a point and shoot camera. In other words this camera was not designed for rigorous and serious photography, hence the reason for its short battery power. As a matter of fact you may notice that the battery life of a D40 actually is shorter than a comparable point and shoot camera. This is because the battery nikon used in the D40 has the same "lithium strength" as most high end point shoot cameras but will perform more battery draining functions because it is in essence an SLR. The D50's, D70's etc were not designed for the same consumer market as the D40. If you compare these cameras to the D40 you will notice they are physically bigger, have a stronger built quality, they have a top LCD etc. all to show that these cameras were made for an amateur photographer market as opposed to the point and shoot consumer. Furthermore, batteries that are used in higher end cameras like the D80 and D200 can also be used in a D50 but not in a D40. Further showing that the D40 is rather like a 'stepchild' in the nikon DSLR family, than a bona fide nikon DSLR. There are other issues like lens compatibility that are a problem with the D40 when compared with its bigger siblings.


You have pics taken with Nikon D40 camera would like to know where a particular pic was taken with it?

D40 does not have a GPS in it so it does not include location meta-data. You have to put all the location data manually on the computer. The good news though is that you can get external GPS that will connect.
