## Questions & Answers

**Q: What lens fit the d40?**
A: The mount for the D series is the same as all Nikon's dslr's and slr's.  Compatability is limited by the features of the lens. One problem with new lenses is the automatic features of the lens ( motors inside the lens for focus and iris) and the ability of the D40 to actuate them. Having said that, I have a Nikon D-40 with a Nikon DX SWM ED Aspherical  auto focus 18-55 that works just fine with the camera.  Another issue is the focal point/image size that is introduced to your sensor. You can go to the nikonians website where they have a compatibility chart that shows which lenses work and what functions are allowed/disabled. http://www.nikonians.org/nikon/slr-lens....

**Q: How do you take action shots indoor at Volleyball games without them being blurry?**
A: Ideally you will require a high power external flash to 'freeze' the motion, and that can be expensive for a Nikon model. Depending on how much ambient light you have in the gym/arena you can, as an alternative, try cranking up the ISO to 1600, set exposure mode to S which will force camera to use highest available shutter speeds and see what happens - preferably at a training session. If you still get blur, you'll need that expensive flash to 'freeze' the motion as the built-in one is nowhere near powerful enough. The SPORTS mode is fine outdoors but won't help in poor lighting conditions.

**Q: can you interchange lenses?**
A: Kim, yes, you can. Only have to be careful not to let dust in. the trick is to have camera facing downward while changing lenses. The lens that comes in a kit is awesome for the price and many people will not need anything else. it is perfect for travel photography. Not fast enough for shooting in extreme low light. I'd recommend buying one prime (fixed legth) lens for that purpose.

**Q: Hello! all comments are very old. is this camera still on sale? how much does it cost to ship to israel?**
A: Yes, this camera is still available from many sellers. As for shipping to Israel, as long as you have your location correctly set to Israel Amazon should be able to give you an estimated shipping cost for each item. Try adding the item to your cart and seeing what the shipping cost would be
