- Just a great camera!
There's really nothing more that I can add to the already excellent reviews...except to just echo what just about everyone is saying -- this is a great camera. In fact, in the sub-$1000 range, I don't think you could possibly buy another one. I checked three or four of the leading photo magazines and e-zines....and they all rave about this baby. And I have to say, I agree.

I use to shoot for fun with my old Canon AE-1, which started back in high school in the late 80's. That camera eventually broke a few years ago, and I gave it away to someone who could fix it. Since then, I've tried to scrape by with a few cheapies, but they were not the kind of camera that made you really want to go out and take pictures.

Then I started borrowing my uncle's now-fairly ancient ... Read More

- No Control in Basic Modes, but a Great Camera
Prior to the 40D I was using top rated point and shoot (Nikon Coolpix 4500, Fujifilm Finpix F30) and the "bridge" camera (Panasonic DMC-FZ50). The program modes are great on these cameras and allow some creativity (metering, drive mode, ISO) and also have manual modes for full creativity (within limits of the camera). I shoot mostly men's softball (afternoon, twilight, and evening lighting). The FZ50 met some of my needs but the images too soft and I couldn't get the large appeture nor the rapid burst speed associated with the 40D.

Right out of the box I wanted to see what the camera could do in the basic modes and found the images to be less impressive than my 4500, F30, and FZ50. The reason is that the 40D does not allow for any changes to the pre-set programs. It forced me ... Read More

- FIRST DAY OWNER . . . I'M STUNNED!
As a long-time Canon EOS Elan IIe (film) owner, with lenses, I've waited to move to digital (till the quality and affordability met my needs / budget). I wanted to stick with Canon (yes my old AF lenses work with the 40D).

Did my research, went to my local camera store, checked my old lenses on the 40D, tried nicely to "deal" with them. They still couldn't touch Amazon's price for this kit.

In the four days (yes, only four) it took for the 40D to reach me (free shipping, incidentally), I bought and read David Busch's book dedicated to the 40D. Highly recommend it. So I was ready.

My camera arrived early this morning. Battery fully charged. I waited till later this afternoon, when the light is better, and took it shooting.

Nature stuff. Children ... Read More

- Outstanding Colours!
After upgrading from the 350D I am truly impressed. I recently shot a wedding with the 40D and I was ecstatic with the results! The richness in colour is simply amazing. I do not regret this purchase. Two thumbs up for the 40D!

- Canon EOS 40D
This is an upgrade from the EOS Rebel XT. I am very pleased with the quality and features in the 40D. Image quality is top notch. I had considered the Nikon 300D, but it's additional features are not worth a cost of 50% more.
