This is the third copy of this post that I've seen. (There are two more in Open Talk.)..

And yoiu're only counting the ones by this poster. There are scores posted if one too the time to search the site..

That being said, focusing speed and shutter lag are key for shooting sports. Then there's lens performance..

All that being said, the more complex camera/lens setup you have, I'd imagine the less likely you are to have celebs smile at you they may confuse you with papparazi..

'Nice pen, bet you write good stories with it.'..

What is thedifference between these two cameras??? Is one more a professionalcamera than the other, and what is the difference with each lens thatthey use, is the D40x a more manual camera in the focusing side, oris the D80 a more Auto and Manual camera, please help me, as I havearound $2000.00 Australian dollars to spend and dont wont to by thewrong equipment (toy) for myself..

There are comprehensive reviews of both cameras on this site which will answer your questions.Mike..

Half an hour in a good camera store will get all your questions answered...

At the time you posted this there was a near identical question clearly visible under the Beginners Questions message threads. It might be sensible if you read that rather than demanding individual attention 3 times..

You could also try reading the reviews of both cameras on this site and elsewhere. A Google search will produce plenty of the latter.
