I have a Nikon D70, a Digital SLR, with an 18-70 mm lens as well that will come on it. It is the Af-S Nikkor 18-70mm 1:3.5-4.5g ED, here is a link to one with a review.
http://www.kenrockwell.com/nikon/1870.htm

Also: guidebook on usage (one from Magic Lantern Series and a DVD from QuickPro, a great DVD tutorial, as well as the owners manual.
-extra battery,
-charger for batteries,
-video cable for connecting camera to TV or something else, I have never used it
-usb to mini usb (for connecting camera directly to computer)
-Lens hood
-display cover (keeps the screen on the back covered and prevents scratching)
-I have a compact Flash card as well I will include, it is small in size (128 mb) holds about 139 pictures on the highest resolution.
Here is a link for a review by a pretty reputable guy, he reviews lot of cameras, search for others if you want.

I looked online for used prices, lowest I found was 489 at amazon for camera and lens, how about $450 for camera and accessories and $195 for the adapter, bringing the total to $645.

Here is a pic of the digiscoping part from Nikon (FSA-L1), they are pricey.

If you don't want the digiscoping part, no worries.
Have a great day.

Have a Canon S3, a duplicate purchase (will look, should all be LNIB), that just haven't gotten around to offering anyone. My loss, nice camera, maybe $225 shipped?

Make me an offer on mine, it is just sitting as I am using my canon for the same reason you want a Nikon, I have more lenses for it.
It will do your wife right.

Adorama has the Nikon D40 (factory refurbished) on sale with a nice zoom lens for $399.99 --- perfect digital Nikon for a new digital shooter.

Lots of info about the camera and how to operate it here ----
