I appreciate what any other make is capable of too, I think on a technical level most of the market leaders produce excellent cameras!!
Wonder why Luke is finding the manual difficult then? perhaps its just the change from compact to SLR.

Re: Finally gave in and brought a DSLR, Nikon D40

I chop and change between a Nikon DSLR (D50) and a Canon DSLR (40D) and find the controls fine on both cameras.

Ever the diplomat eh !
