D40 is an awesome camera, I had mine about 2 years ago as my first DSLR it performed flawlessly for me until I finally outgrew it.

Main hardwear
-Sony Alpha A700 DSLR
-Sony 3.5-6.3/18-200 65mm lens
-Sony 4.5-5.6/75-300 55mm lens
-Sandisk Extreme III 16GB compact flash card
Extras
-(2) 4 GB pro duo memory sticks
-Sunpak (Best Buy) 65 mm polarizing filter
-Sunpak (Best Buy) 55 mm polarizing filter
-Sunpak (Best Buy) 55 mm UV filter
-Sony view finder magnifier (mainly for Macro type stuff or fine focus moments)
-Ebay remote commander (3 ft cord, bought it for my old A100, A700 comes with a cordless remote)
-Tamrac Adventure 7 backpack style camera bag (black and red)
-Generic tripod
-I also have a small camera bag for events and whatnot, alot of the times 12x12x12 is the limit.

I think that's about it, that's what comes to mind anyway. I just gave my old Sony Alpha A100 w/ Sony 3.5-5.6/18-70 lens to my fiance. I'd like to get a dedicated macro lens but honestly not likely. I think next I'll invest in a Carl Zeiss lens fallowed by a higher quality G series zoom lens, the only problem is the affordable option is a fixed 300mm f/2.8. I don't know if I want a fixed 300mm.

An affordable 300mm f/2.8? I don't think such a thing exists. The nikkor one is well over $4000. Off hand, that I can remember even the Sigma 300 2.8 is about $2500.

True the Canon 300 f/2.8L go for around $5k and being Sony they would probably charge you even more!

I have a connection (employee discount through a relative), it would end up in the range of 1500 or so (as opposed to 5K for the next step up)
