Boss these days one can buy 400D with the 18-55IS lens, which is any day better than the 18-55 D40 comes with. Even the older non IS Canon 18-55 is comparable to the Nikkor 18-55.BF1983 said:The Nikon D40 has one of the best kit lens (compared to the non-IS lenses).
You will not regret it.
The Canon 400D is a bit expensive at 26000 and it has a crappy kit lens. Stick with the D40 for now.

BTW what's the price of 400D??
also is 1000D same as 400D?
and the price you have quoted is grey price if I'm not wrong.

I had a useless argument with someone on these forums about shake, but I realise now what that discussion was really about.
verma said:^^ that is quite confusing for me what you've explained there, specially this one -
I've few doubts for you:
1. where did you buy it from? price is official or Grey?
2. If the kit is 19k with stock lense, how did you get the 18-55VR lense plus extra guddies for 22k?
3. Given a budget of 25k what would have been your choice?
and of all I thought you already had a 400D, then why did you buy D40 now? :S
and I don't see any blur in pictures taken in ASUS 780G mobo review thread.
