Just wondering if anyone has the sony alpha a200? Looking at this camera or maybe the nikon d40. Both in my price range. Just looking for reviews and what not.

I have a D40x that was a Christmas gift in 2007, with the kit lens. Great camera, but I'm thinking of getting a D300. PM me if you're interested.

The D40's and 60's and such are good cameras. The problem is, once you try the good stuff like a D200 or a D300 then it is a little hard to go back.

One of the good things about going with Nikon or Canon is that it is pretty simple to rent the nice glass. That way when you go on a trip where you need a $1500 lens or even a $5000 lens you can simply rent it and be good to go.
