Very nice man, great job keeping it clean.

Very nice camera & u got some talent!!!

This is off topic, but what is the best thing to use to clean my lenses & the inside of the camera where the reflector is(excuse my camera noob terminology)...The reason I ask is because I am seeing specs of dust in some of my pics....

if i remember correctly, you're using a d40/d40x right? i dont think they have a built in sensor cleaner, but even then, those don't work that great. if you have a setting on the camera for mirror lockup, use that to flip up the mirror and expose the sensor. if you're camera doesn't have that, you can use bulb mode to keep the sensor open.

once you have it open, they make some fancy sensor cleaning tools, but i've always just used aspirators (the things you stick in your kids nose to suck out boogers) a clean/new one anyway you use it to blow the dust off the sensor and off the mirrors when they are down.

for lenses, a glasses cleaning cloth or even a microfiber towel works great

looking good man...nice ride

Love it, so clean and perfect wingless. Some times less is more and that is one bad a$$ ride.

I'm thinking about picking up one of those f/1.9 lenses. Issue is with the D40, they won't auto focus without buying the much more expensive AF-S system one. Love the light it can bring in though! Great pics! Thanks for sharing!

Great lookin pictures and ride man!!

for around $100, i recommend the 50 f/1.8 to everybody. nikon has one, canon has one, no matter the camera you have, buy one.

yes, the d40 won't autofocus with it, but it will teach you to manual focus some, and it will autofocus later when you upgrade bodies
