I should point out since it's not clear from the manuals and the guy at the store didn't know that the D40 will NOT drive Nikon's flashes in external wireless mode (nor will the D50). I have a Nikon flash that I use externally, but I have it on a photo-trigger and set the power manually.

If you want the automatic external flash contol, this is not the way to go, unless you want to pay $250 for a controller on top of a $180 flash. The price of the controller is about the difference between the D40 and a higher level model that has the controller built in...
