 | Nikon D40 6.1MP Digital SLR Camera Kit with 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor Lens
Buy new: $467.26 / Used from: $409.00 I like the small size and lightness of the D40. For now 6 megapixels is just fine, and at its price point is a very good value. The 18-55 kit lens will be fine for now as well.

 | SanDisk SDSDH-2048-901 2 GB Ultra II Secure Digital Memory Card ( US Retail Package )
Buy new: $9.69 / Used from: $10.51 I selected this one.

 | Nikon HB-33 Lens Hood for 18-55mm DX Nikkor Lens
A must have for reducing lens flare.
|
 | Nikon ML-L3 Wireless Remote Control for Nikon D40, D40x, D60 & D80 Digital SLR Cameras
Buy new: $15.12 / Used from: $12.99 Add this for s/p's and tripod shots.

 | Nikon 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED IF AF-S DX VR Zoom Nikkor Lens
Buy new: $203.62 / Used from: $180.00 I would like to add this lens to my kit as soon as possible. I have heard this lens is tack sharp for a kit lens, and at a very fair price.

 | Tamrac Adventure 7 Photo Backpack (Red/Black)
Buy new: $74.95 I have already purchased this bag for my kit. It holds everything I would need for a day kit, and is very light and comfortable.

 | Nikon D40/D40x Digital Field Guide by David D. Busch
Buy new: $13.59 / Used from: $8.52 I have already purchased this book, and it helped me to select the D40 as my first 'new' purchase Nikon DSLR. I feel it is written very well, much better than the Magic Lantern books, and is illustrated in full color.

 | Nikon 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED-IF AF-S VR Zoom Nikkor Lens for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras
Buy new: $480.50 / Used from: $475.00 This is a lens that will be added to the D40 kit at a later date. It will also be fine for future body upgrades.
|
 | Nikon SB-400 AF Speedlight for Nikon Digital SLR Cameras
Buy new: $107.00 This will be a later purchase. I don't know that much about Flash photography, and really I prefer available lighting, so I think this is all the additional flash I would want until I learn more about it. I think it would compliment the D40 just fine, and make for a good starter flash unit.

 | Nikon Creative Lighting System Digital Field Guide by J. Dennis Thomas
Buy new: $13.59 / Used from: $9.95 I will probably get this book at the same time I get the SB-400.
