I would like to know if Nikon have a similar feature on my D40 and if so how do i get the best from it?

If you’re selling your work, the camera is well worth the cost. Cameras in this class include the Nikon D2xs, Canon
EOS-1D Mark III, Canon EOS 5D, and Canon EOS-1Ds Mark II. These models take you all the way from 12MP up to a lofty 16MP (or beyond) and can,arguably, meet or exceed the image quality of the best film cameras.

Here’s a quick checklist of what your extra cash buys:

Tank-like reliability:
I really have no experience with how reliable tanks are, but they must be pretty good if being “built like a tank” is a positive. Pro DSLRs have metal bodies, excellent sealing against the elements, and rugged controls and components like shutters that can be operated thousands of times without failing. A typical professional might shoot more pictures in a day than an amateur photographer takes in a year. Professionals can’t afford to have a camera wimp out at the worst possible moment. So, many of these cameras are purchased for their ruggedness alone, and even then true pros commonly buy multiple bodies in order to have a backup or two or three.

Faster operation:
Pro cameras generally have the most advanced auto-focus systems available from a vendor, so they can take pictures right now without delay or shutter lag. They have large internal memory buffers to suck up exposures as fast as you can take them, and the speedy digital image chips process the bits and bytes and then write them to your memory card. Exposure systems, too, are top-notch, both in accuracy and speed. Professional dSLRs are veritable speed demons.

Faster burst modes:
Whereas prosumer dSLRs are considered speedy if they can capture continuous-mode pictures at 3 fps, pro cameras typically can grab 4 to 10 fps without sweating. Those big memory buffers (to store images until they can be written to the memory card) and digital signal processing chips make this speed possible.

More options:
Pro cameras let you set up multiple sets of shooting parameters and recall them at the press of a button, so you can tailor your camera’s operation to particular environments. You might find other choices not available to lesser cameras, such as the ability to save images in compressed or uncompressed RAW format, TIFF, and multiple levels of JPEG quality.

Bigger sensors:
Some pro cameras offer larger sensors, which can be an advantage to pro shooters. These size able sensors are available from Canon; several models are offered by Kodak (before they were discontinued); and there are a few so-called medium-format DSLRs. In the case of the Canon and late, lamented Kodak models, the cameras used traditional 35mm-camera-style lenses but imaged on a sensor that was the same size as a full 35mm frame. A chief advantage of this was the ability to use any existing 35mm camera lens with no lens crop factor applied.

Non-SLR digital cameras generally fall into two types: compact digicams, and SLR-like bridge digital cameras (also known as advanced digital cameras) which offer larger zoom ranges, better optics, and more manual controls. Both types have permanently fixed lenses. While the only defining feature of an SLR is its reflex viewfinder system, extant digital SLR models generally offer the following advantages over fixed-lens cameras of the same generation:

  • Choice of interchangeable (and often higher-quality) lenses.
  • Image sensors of much larger size and often higher quality, offering lower noise, which is useful in low light, and greater dynamic range.
  • Optical viewfinders which tend to be more comfortable and efficient, especially for action photography and in low-light conditions.
  • DSLRs often offer faster and more responsive performance, with less shutter lag, faster auto focus systems, and faster frame rates.
  • The larger focal length for the same field of view allows creative use of depth of field effects.
  • Ability to attach additional accessories including hot shoe-mounted flash units, battery grips for additional power and hand positions, external light meters, and remote controls

There are also certain drawbacks to current DSLR designs, compared to fixed-lens cameras:

  • Generally greater size and weight.
  • Generally greater cost.
  • Few DSLRs with a video mode. With the exception of cameras such as the Nikon D90 and the Canon EOS 5D Mark II, few DSLRs produced so far can record full-motion video, while this has become a standard feature of compact digital cameras.
  • Louder operation, due to the SLR mirror mechanism.
  • Potential contamination of the sensor by dust particles, when the lens is changed (though recent dust reduction systems alleviate this).
