Hey, I owned a D50, 50 1.8, 85 1.8, sb400 2 years ago
lost interest in photography, got broke from this hobby, so sold everything but my 85mm
the 50mm stays on my Nikon film slr
and now I want to get back into it, but not that serious

So, I'm looking for a small DSLR with kit lens for $400 to $500 new.
I don't like to edit photos, so will likely shoot in jpeg
I'm looking at Nikon D40 or Canon XS.

Which one is better?
I like to use prime lenses, so can the XS autofocus a Canon 50mm 1.8 lens?
