  • Thanks for the vid. I have a D40 and a couple of old manual lens. Just purchased the cheap ebay focusing screen to help on my manual focusing. THis vid will certainly help me.

  • I am honored to be able to help you.

    Let's enjoy a pleasant camera life each other :).

  • Thanks for the vid! I'll probably do this sometime soon. Is this the katz eye? Or the cheaper model?

  • This is the cheap screen which I purchased in ebay.

    If there is the plan that you buy, I think that katz eye is better.

  • Why would you want to bother with the cost with a D40?

    I personally have D200 with a Katzeye for manual nikkor lenses...

    But with a body that can't meter with non-CPU lenses - why'd you bother?

    BTW... Metal tweezers are a no no.

    No gloves aswell.

    Well, if you're happy with it. I suppose you're fine.

    - Al!

  • I judged that I was suitable for a remodeling base because D40 was cheap.

    I would not have the courage to remodel it like you if I had D200.

    Btw, this remodeling means that i don't want to be regulated by a lens.

    We can confirm the photography result immediately, so exposure is a trial and error.

    I reflect on having used metal tweezers. We should use the plastic one.

  • I love my D40...it may be old, out of date and entry-level, but it's my baby :D

  • The Video was great, but the music really makes it. I think I could change my focus screen, IF I had that music playing through the process.

  • @ichnamensdu i know i hate compacts

  • will the brackets flash red if you use AF mode or is there any change in AF mode?

  • @delonge5000 thats not right....

  • @Xyb3rTeCh The Nikon D40 is a very good camera for the small price it cost!

    I work as a professional photographer and for a long time i had a

    D40 for my studio portrait photography and the imagequality is good...

    (Printed A3 formats with nice result)

    If you are a beginner this IS the perfect camera!

    Best Regards

  • COCKSUCKERS, it doesn't matter the camera, what matters is the photographer...if you love photography you'll do it even with a compact..consumer kids.

  • and sony alpha 200 was damn much better than this piece of crap

  • d40 is the worst of nikon. not even better than canon rebel xs. 3 AF pts is serious crap
