Nikon DSLR kit: D40, 2xlenses, flashgun, filter & bag

[p1tse]

selling my Nikon kit and perfect kit for a beginner or newbie to DSLR on a budget:

 

- Nikon D40 (note: flash not working, please read below)

- Nikon AF-S 18-55mm DX F3.5-5.6G IF-ED Zoom Lens

- Nikon AF-S 55-200mm F4-5.6 G ED Lens – with pouch and lens hood

- Nikon SB-400 Flash-gun – with pouch

- Hoya Super HMC Pro 1 UV Filter 52mm

- Camera bag (can fit all the above)

 

All items are in very good condition with little use, body and lens are silver colour edition.

All items above, comes with original packaging, box, manual, leads, etc.

 

Note: The Inbuilt Flash Does not flash/ light. The hood still pops open fine as per normal operation; it has had no knocks, drops etc. As still in very good condition, and takes perfect pictures.

 

Fixation: quoted the following:

"We could repair the camera here for you for a cost of:

£65.00 labour plus VAT

I have seen the problem before, there is a switch in the top cover that gets broken, just through use; there is nothing you could have done to stop it from happening, it is electronic component failure and just bad luck I guess. It doesn't just happen on the D40 but other Nikon camera too"

 

However, instead of getting it fixed, I decided to go for a Nikon Flashgun sb-400, which was advised by many members, as gives better flash and options of light tilting etc.

 

*rrp of the above (quotes from Jessops online)

D40 and18-55 lens = £270

55-200 lens = £150

SB400 Flashgun = £150

Hoya Filter = £15

Camera Bag = £30 (estimate)

Total = £615

 

The total new is over £600, and I’m looking at offers around the half the price mark plus postage (before it goes on ebay such like)

£300 collected from Bristol

 

+ pics to follow (when I can)

+ only selling to free up some cash
