Does anyone know if the SB400 is compatible with the D40?

Yes. I recently purchased this flash for my d40 and it works quite well. Far superior to the stock camera flash. Cheers

Yes. I also have a D40 and purchased the remote through Amazon. It works fine. I've had no problems with it.

Does the remote you purchased for the D40 say it is compatible with the D3200? I think the remote descriptions usually say--I'm not sure though. Best of luck! :)

Yes. I have d 7000 and sb 600 and it supported them just fine. B e careful where the flash attaches and make sure you have it tightened properly r it could fall off when rotated down without being guided.

The SB-50DX was built as a low end strobe for the early non-iTTL (CLS) Nikon digital cameras like the D1 series.To use the strobe with your D40 you will need to put the flash in manual mode. The camera will operate in either P, S, A or M modes with the SB-50DX set in manual mode.As the D40 supports Nikon's CLS (Creative Lighting System) highly recommend you look at getting an SB-600, SB-800 or SB-900 used as rhese three strobes are all no longer made. Or invest in the new SB-910 or SB-700.

Yes, I have used the SB-700 in studio wirelessly with the D-90... works fabulous ! It will work wirelessly on all Nikon DSLR's.... have tried it with entry level models up to the beastly D800. Hopes this helps...it is a great flash !

Sorry, but no. The D40 has a wireless infrared remote shutter release only and will not accept a wired remote. My wife uses the Nikon D40 and it will only take the ML-L3.

Yes. That is the same model camera I operate, and the sb400 works just fine with my camera.

I have SB 700 & D7000 and the system works flawlessly ! I see no reason why SB600 would not work too. Love the photoxOdin TTL I dont own a pocket wizard but i think these are better

Go to Nikon's website and ask there. They had a long list of Nikon cameras for which the SB400 works. It provided me the answer I needed for my Nikon P7000.

I have a d700 and it has worked wonderfully with it. No issues at all, I've used it multiple times.

Yes. I use my D5200 with the SB-600, what is older than the SB-800. This camera is absolutely compatible with all the SB line flash from Nikon. Is a GREAT camera, so don't worry your SB-800 will work just fine.

No it will not. The D40 does not work with lenses that are just "AF", they must be "AF-S" and have an AutoFocus Motor in the lens.

Yes, the Nikon SB-400 flash works perfectly on a D5100. I use one on my D5100 often.

I can't answer that from experience with the D40, but my guess is that yes it would work; most all of the Nikon lenses are compatible. Be forewarned that it is a heavy, heavy lens.

I don't have a D40 so I really don't know it this works with it. There should be an accessory list in the owner manual that would tell you which remote release works. If you don't have a manual you can download one on Nikon's web site.
