D40x! for a few more bucks you get better features

tanung lng po kung newbie sir? if yes, then D40 is perfect for you.

di pa naman ako nakakagamit ng 400d. but i can shed some light for nikond40

best entry level kit for starters.. even aspiring photographers to become pro.
very cheap. best deal for the price among other brands and same entry models.
light weight.

others, you can search sa net, try mo sa photography forums sir (sobrang dami), i think mas logical yun

im"H"o, mag d80 na lng sya sir kung mag d40x.. hihi..

additional bucks for higher resolution aint worth it. Hindi pa naman siguro mag pprint ng malalaking sizes si sir. hehe.

yeah.

for me, yung megapixel na na-upgrade sa D40x from D40 parang hindi worth it eh, so kung nikon, baka D40 talaga.

For entry level talaga mga sir.

How much kaya ang ganito ngayon sa Henry's?

hindi ko lng alam ngayon kung magkano.. meron ako friend na magiinquire din dun.. pag sinabi na nya sakin magkano ill inform you right away.

hehe switching from D40 to D80 in terms of prices is a bit too much hehe doble na yun.

hihi.. yun lng.. wala na kasi ako ibang maisip na model na next sa d40x eh.. yung sulit ba.

IMO, get the d40x. lalo na if you're planning to get serious.
di lang naman megapixels ang difference nung x eh. meron ding added features. just like the difference ng d70 at d70s. or D2H at D2x. parang ganun.

wala bang sang-ayon sa canon?  i'm planning to get a 400d kasi eh, but not anytime sooner (maybe sometime in august or september! :mrgreen:).  just for a hobby though, and i also heard they have cheaper lenses?  is it true?
Title: Re: Nikon D40 or Canon 400d
Post by: Jayson77 on January 20, 2008, 10:27:40 PM
I'm a Nikon user, first I just want to say that I have nothing against Canon, Its just because I love the colors of the pictures of Nikons compared to Canon. I tried both camera. But In high ISO's Canon wins. In sharpness they are almost the same. In funcitons, Nikon again gets my vote. But beteween the AF-area of the D40 & the 400D, I'd choose the 400D (400D got 9 focus area compared to 3 on the D40/D40x). On lenses, Canon's lens are somtimes cheaper that  on Nikons because Canon "sale" their lenses (Be careful on buying Canon lens because sometimes the "on-sale" lens are soft focus so you must test the a couple of lens before buying, I never had a problem like that with Nikkor lens.). Also, Canon has an anti-dust while nikon has none. You can edit your pictures on D40 while 400D has none.

So the choice is yours. Both cameras are great. 
Best thing to do is borrow a D40 & a 400D from someone & try to compare the controls, colors and the features, ask the owners of the cameras what they like and what they don't like about their cams.

Sir, just a little suggestion. Why not get a D80 body instead, Its only 36K now at Hidalgo. And get a Nikkor 18-200mm VR is only 31K. Wala nang tanggalan ng lens yan sa camera puwera na lang kung magppalit ka ng lower aperture lens (which is pricey).  :-D
Title: Re: Nikon D40 or Canon 400d
Post by: a-boi on January 21, 2008, 06:58:46 AM
yeah i would agree that you should try it out first. I tried both cameras and I preferred the canon. Just because it fits me right. The D40s was too small for me and I liked the canon's grip. Comfort is always important.
Title: Re: Nikon D40 or Canon 400d
Post by: hindi_ako_si_sid on January 21, 2008, 10:14:50 AM
i also agree for the third time.. yun ang pinakaswak sa lahat.. try them both!! malaking investments, kailangang sigurista tayo.

@jayson.. sir kayo ba yung nakita ko sa kabilang thread na nag fppf?
Title: Re: Nikon D40 or Canon 400d
Post by: Unior on January 21, 2008, 11:19:48 PM
yah, i'd agree... try both.. parang sa gitara (sori gitarista kasi ako), depende sa "feel" ng gitara... I've had the chance to try both, and so far mas comfortable ako sa canon, so i guess i'd stick with that...  kaw din bro, try mo yung dalawa.. sabi nga ni hindi_ako_si_sid, it's a big investment, so baka madisappoint ka lang kung kumuha ka ng isang camera because of reviews, pero in the end hindi ka din nageenjoy!

just my two cents
Title: Re: Nikon D40 or Canon 400d
Post by: vic_6 on January 22, 2008, 07:41:18 AM
yep. tama nga sila. kung may mga kaibigan kang gumagamit nung 2 models, i test mo extensively. personally, i'd choose the 400d over the d40/x any day. kung d80 medyo ibang usapan na. hehe.

reasons i choose the 400d - i felt more comfortable with the 400d over the two entry level nikons, it auto focuses on pretty much all available lenses, low noise (compared to nikon) and another big factor is that most of my friends and family who own dslrs use canon, so i can borrow stuff from them.

lets forget about the technical features like 6mp vs 10 mp or auto cleaning and every other technical mumbo jumbo

i would just like to know which one will capture better colors using their kit lens

im leaning on the d40 coz its cheaper 470USD and feels better on my hand. i have not tried taking pictures with them so i would like to get your opinion.

you can't go wrong with any of the two cameras you mentioned... with the correct techniques both cameras could take exceptional pictures using their kit lenses.

The only draw back of the d40 against the 400d is that it has no internal motor for autofocus. If your lens doesn't have a drive motor your stuck with manually focusing the lens.

Post by: vic_6 on June 07, 2008, 05:56:02 AM
canon user here. and im embarassed to see that picture as a sample. it sucks. and it doesnt represent what the camera is capable of. and a comparison shot of a scene that's not even the same is kind of weird...

i'm a 400d user. been one for a little over a year now and i've also used nikon d40s on a few occasions. personally, not a fan of the nikon. colors are great n all but low light noise sucks pretty bad. and that really matters to me.

overall though, you really cant go wrong nga with either one. i've seen some amazing shots from both. it just depends on the user.

I'm trying to factor out angle, objects, the circumstance of a steadier hand, etc. For me, colors themselves, parang pareho lang.

Pero sabi nga ng kaibigan kong photographer... it doesn't matter nowadays yung subtle diff in colors and texture... may Photoshop naman e. :D

Photoshop? Yes solution yun para sa maling color pero pag 500+ pics na ang e-edit mo within 2 days hindi na puwede mag sayang ng oras para lang mag correct ng color. One of the reason why I chose Nikon. Canon for me is reddish.
Just my opinion. Peace.

im a nikon user. the two pictures above obviously shows na mas maganda yungkuha nung nikon, most probably, dahil kita yung reflection nung dagat. eh paanong hindi makikita yung reflection nung dagat, eh mukhang yung nikon shot ay naka circular polarizer na filter tapos yung canon shot ay medyo matagal yung shutter speed. kung ganun nga, makakakuha talaga ng reflection yung nikon at yung canon ay hindi.

i hope humbucker would also put the EXIF on both these pictures. im sure hindi pareho yung "techno-mumbo-jumbo" nung mga photos.

alam nyo mga tol, parang paggigitara yan eh -> wala sa pana yan, nasa injan yan. so canon or nikon, depende pa rin sa photog yan.

peace sa lahat.

Post by: randymarsh on June 15, 2008, 07:27:35 AM
yeah i agree with kawal. in addition to that, dapat 100% crops din ang ginamit na photos na pang compare para makita pixel by pixel kung gaano ka sharp magrecord yung ccd/cmos sensors ng nikon and canon.

also take into consideration that some camera parts are not exclusively manufactured by nikon and canon. for example, both canon and nikon (on of their some models) use sony manufactured ccd sensors. memory by toshiba, etc...

with regards to color, there's a setting called white balance. some prefer to use the default setting while others (like me) prefer warmer looking photos. Malaki din ang difference yung file format na ginamit sa camera kaya i exclusively shoot in RAW (which limits 8gb memory cards to 310 shots) then batch convert to high quality JPEG using the software bundled (picture project) with my camera.

again cameras are just tools. the one who peeps into the viewfinder presses the shutter.

tignan natin ulit mabuti mga sir at linawan ang mata  :roll: kung no pp talaga ito magkaiba talaga kulay. possible may cpl yung kuha ng canon kaya nawala yung reflection. dami ko na nightscapes na-compare ko na yung shots ng canon sa nikon kahit sagad mo white balance ng nikon sa tungsten +3 iba pa rin output ng sa canon hindi mo mahabol sa white balance settings lang. kaso minsan gusto ko yung kuha ng canon minsan nagsasawa ako sa output ng kulay ng nikon. yun lang po at linawan lang po natin ang mga mata salamat po!  8-)

^sir, magandang gamitin ang circular polarizer para ma-eliminate ang reflections; pero mas nagagamit ko sya generally para ma-control yung reflection (and not specifically eliminate it). i'd use CPL sa ganitong mga night shots para lalong ma-enhance yung reflection, and at the same time may control ako.

isa pang comment ko, ang pagkakaalam ko ang katapat na model ng Canon 400D ay Nikon D40x, at ang katapat naman ng Nikon D40 ay Canon 350D.

sir nakita ko mga shots mo astig idol sama naman ako pag may photoshoot ka! :-) tsaka pakita na rin sample ng nightshots mo with cpl hindi ko pa kasi nasubukan yan sa nightshots with reflection... pero normal naman lumalabas yung reflection sa tubig lalo na kung long exposure tsaka small aperture sa ganung angle kaso nga lang sobrang bright kaya maganda nga siguro may cpl rin para ma-control yung reflection. bale yung mga kuha ko sa riverbanks ganun rin ang resulta kaya nasabi ko na yung shot ng canon malamang may cpl kasi nawala yung reflection. next time invite ko yung barkada na canon user gawa kaming sample shots ng same eksena pag nagkaron ng time...  :-)
eto mga sample pics sa riverbanks taken last dec 24th-25th mn dun na kami inabot ng pasko kakahanap ng lechon manok :-D

^ganda ng mga reflections ah! galeng. kung hindi masyadong maalon sa mga shots mo, lamang ka na nun. kasi pag medyo maalon (katulad ng dagat), tapos long exposure ka, hindi mo talaga makikita yung reflection. prime lens gamit mo dito no? hula ko 50mm f/1.8

to compare two photos, so many things should be the same:
1. white balance setting
2. ISO setting
3. aperture and shutter speed setting
4. resolution
5. same day, same time (very important!)

I use a 350D and I'm happy with it. However, Nikon shutter buttons are very
nice to the touch.

to compare two photos, so many things should be the same:
1. white balance setting
2. ISO setting
3. aperture and shutter speed setting
4. resolution
5. focal length of lens
6. same day, same time (very important!)

I use a 350D and I'm happy with it. However, Nikon shutter buttons are very
nice to the touch.
shoot tayo sir katuwaan lang side by side comparison d40 vs 350d parehong kit lens lang gamit match yan  :wink: yung sa tropa ko sana kaso wala na daw yung 350d ng nya eh binenta nag palit na cam :-D

question: kung may makukuha kang Nikon d40 with kit (complete accessories) sa halagang 15k 2nd hand)

at may makukuha kang canon eos 350D comes with:
18-55mm kit lens, canon neck strap, lens cap, desk charger, battery, USB cable
sa halagang 17.5k (2nd hand)

ano ang mas ok?  :lol:

para sa akin neither kasi parehong discontinued na yun models na yun (for the d40, not officially discontinued pero hindi na nagbebenta ang mga camera store ng ganitong model dahil may "signal" na sila from nikon)

nightscapes rin siguro sir long exposure settings gaya ng nasa 2nd post. minsan kasi parang gusto ko yung kuha ng canon eh. pansin ko kasi kahit nasa +3 na tungsten wb settings ko sa nikon parang medyo bitin pa rin. sa canon parang mas mataas yata yung wb sa incandescent hindi ko lang sure kaya gusto ko rin masubukan. or pwede rin may model sir para mas masaya... :-D may kilala ako kung gusto mo :wink:

canon - 30D or 40D
nikon - D40x or D300 or D700 or D3

eto ang mga recommended kong models based sa nagamit ko at feedback ng mga kakilala ko. pero sobrang dami talagang kailangang i-consider para masabi kung alin ang mas ok. siguro let's dwell nalang sa idea na stick to a camera that suits your needs.

gaya ng ginawa ko... bago ako bumili ng DSLR sinubukan ko muna mga cams ng mga friend ko... nikon, canon olympus at pentax...

at ang napili ko ay canon

lahat naman sila magaganda at may advantage at disadvantage... ako binase ko sa paghawak ng cam kung saan ako mas comportable kapag hawak ko ang camera... at mga advice sa akin ng mga kaibigan ko nasa akin na yan kung pano ko pag aaralan ang mga settings at pagtimpla ng kulay... nakasalalay din yan sa mata ko...

Kung ano yung bibilhin mo, kasi yun ang pinili mo eh. What are your choices ba? Ano yung target mong bilhin? Subukan mo muna/manghiram ka sa kaibigan na meron saka ka mag-decide. Malamang yung pipiliin mo, yun ang best para DSLR for you.
