In that case, go for the D90 body only. It has more control and the in-body focus motor which opens up the use of older lenses. plus, the onboard flash can act as a commander for wireless flashes like the SB600.

Think of the D5000 as a D40 with the D90 sensor (plus video - if that matters).

I had a D60 for a year and just upgraded to the D90 - wonderful camera.

D300 with a 70-200 f/2.8 lens

Though I reeeealy like the full frame D700 I just cant see dropping the extra cash.

Why the camera?
Have you explored all the other places where you'd get more bang for buck. Like lenses, decent flashes?

There's a great in-depth review of the D60 on Photo.net.

Well since you already have a body that doesnt work with all of Nikons lenses I would say the D90. The D5000 to me is the same as your D40. The D90 will open your lens choices later.

D90 at the very least, D300 if you can afford it.
