Implacably pierced and outfitted in jewelry ranging from precious stones to human bones, the actors and actresses that populate the screen do so beautifully, in particular the lead Rudy Youngblood.

...safari. Shooting wise, I would not be able to tell the difference between it and the D50. The only downside is, once the D40 has revealed to you the secrets of photography and made you a master shutterbug, you might wish you had that little second LCD screen for quick aperture and shutter-speed adjustments...
