This is very helpful Dave.
~I would love to have the flexibility to use different lenses in the future
~The lens I used on the D40X is out of my price range right now. 18-200mm.
I guess that I just want to know whether or not the 18-135mm will suit my needs for the time being until I can add another lens to the family.
Oh...and I ran to Ritz Camera at lunch and within 5 seconds I realized that my research on the forums here had paid off. I clearly knew more about the D40 and D80 than the man behind the counter. The trip was worth it though, since I was able to hold both the D40X and D80 in my hands. The D80 felt great...does that mean I have big hands?
