On this page as i type is an advert for a D50 body for £299. How much cheaper would a D40 have to be to attract people to go for it's cut down features. The D50 may be entry level but it's got most things you need. It's going to be small - but the size difference between the Canon budget cameras and the Nikon is something that often attracts people to Nikon. And those less into the techniques of photography are often attracted more by mp count than anything else and 6mp just doesnt sound much these days.
