Nikon D40: 6.3 MegaPixel
Prosumer Infrared-Enabled Camera
DISCONTINUED. Replaced by the Nikon
D3000
Models:
XNiteNikonD40
UV+Visible+IR
XNiteNikonD40IR IR-Only
The Nikon D40 is a prosumer digital SLR camera. Because of the nature of the IR enabling
modification, we do not recommend this camera to anyone who does not fully
understand the implications of the modification. This camera offers great
IR sensitivity, dynamic range and low noise.
We can modify this camera to be IR+Visible or IR-Only
. An
IR+Visible camera will see both Infrared and Visible light after
modification. An IR-Only camera will only see IR from 715nm through
1200nm. The IR-Only camera has an internal 715nm IR filter with an
antiflection coating. The 715nm filter performs similarly to the Hoya RM72
and Wratten 89B.
Thjs camera includes a Nikon 18-55mm Zoom lens. This
lens takes 52mm filters.

Please note that the D40 requires AF-S or AF-I CPU lenses for
autofocus to work. The AF-S and AF-I CPU lenses have a motor in the lens
itself. Other Nikon cameras have the autofocus motor in the camera
body. You can use a non-motorized Nikon lens with the D40, but autofocus
won't work.
We can modify your D40 for $450 + return S&H ($20 UPS
ground insured domestic USA). Turn around is 1 or 2 days from
receipt. We only need the camera and charged battery for testing along
with a cover letter specifying the conversion type.
