what is the best digital SLR camera for a beginner?

Right now the least expensive DSLR is the Nikon D40(x). Ironically it supports some of the best lenses in the world

If you are a beginner do you think you want to go to a dslr? here is a second choice i will suggest. This camera has all the functions of a dslr but does not have the interchangable lens and it will cost you a whole heck less then dslr. Fujifilm finepix s9100, 9.0mp 10x zoom (28-300mm) has all the manual settings and takes video too. takes both xd and cf memory cards. I got this camera because i too wanted a dslr but i wanted to learn how to use a manual camera more and felt the dslr was just a little too exspensive at the time. this camera takes great pics...go to the following links i have included below and take a look...

fhotoace's recommendation is sound, the D40/x is a great little dSLR that takes fantastic pictures. Until you really start learning the more advanced stuff, just set it to program mode and forget it.
But you know, another point could be raised, based on your budget. If you were to say 'under $ 800', I'd suggest the Nikon D40/x or one of the other brands at a similar price-point. If you were to say 'I've got $ 5000 to burn', I could just as accurately answer your question by recommending the Nikon D2X (Nikon's top of the line) or a 1D-series from Canon... reason being that all dSLRs have a basic functionality that even a beginner can understand and apply. The more complex features of the higher-end models can be learned as you go along.
What I'm trying to say is, *any* dSLR is good for a beginner (as much as even the cheapest dSLR can be good for a pro), the best choice should really be determined by how much money you want to spend.
