Been a long time with a small camera. Want to move up since a compact point and shoot does not do justice to what ever nature scenery i try to capture.

Given my small budget, i want to purchase the Nikon D40 with the kit lens. I some day dream to own the Pentax weather proof SLR with those amazing lenses...

Please help. I am inclined to buying from the grey market FYI... since its selling for approx 415 USD in USofA where as a call to GK Vale in bangalore gets me a quote of Rs 31K which is bull...

Help with some info.
Sai.
