Whoa! Slow down. Take a deep breath.
Now enroll in a photography class at your local community college. Learn about f-stops and composition and shutter speed and light and ISO - by using a manual 35mm film camera. Once you understand them you will be advanced enough to consider a DSLR.
After all, would you buy a car with a manual transmission if you didn't know how to drive it?
If there are no classes locally, at least buy "Object & Image: An Introduction To Photography, Third Edition" by George M. Craven.

the d40x is a good beginner dslr. It's an entry level camera that has some decent features. I believe there are a few limits on certain lenses but you can purchase a couple inexpensive lenses to get you started. When you get more
experienced with the camera you can upgrade when you're ready. I have the d80 which I love but I wasn't a novice when I bought it. Hope this helps.

look on the Pentax K7, the Pentax ok mount can use maximum any Pentax ok lens made interior the final 40 years. image Stabilisation is provided into the digital camera so each and every person of them would be IS. great build high quality and astounding pictures. With Canikons you're able to desire to pay a top class for IS as there is is provided into the lens no longer the digital camera - at greater value to you with each and every lens you purchase. The lens IS can in basic terms shelter vertical and horizontal stream the Pentax can shelter rotation too. This 'floating' sensor is often used for directly levelling your pictures, something that throughout the time of lens IS can't do. particularly some those older lenses would be handbook concentration of course because it particularly is how they have been made, the one hundred% view from the staggering viewfinder makes this uncomplicated. The K7 has the superb viewfinder of any DSLR. paying for previous lenses can furnish you great lenses value effectively, there are, of course, an entire raft of high quality motor vehicle concentration lenses available. Canon sensors are previous technologies the K7 makes use of the latest nMos sensors and it exhibits in decrease noise and astounding element. Pentax is definately the main interior your potential high quality equipment available bah none, each and every of the upload-ons which comprise flash, lenses etc. are greater inexpensive than the Canikons equivalent.

I would go to a camera shop and look at them in person. You need to hold them and see where the controls are and which feels good in your hands.
The salesperson can also answer any questions you may have.
