- BEST CAMERA YOU CAN UNDER $1000
i upgraded from the canon XS if you can, do it.... !!!
I don't agree when they say the XSI or the newest Canon is great I would rather have this faster 40d hell its like a mini mark II.
Don't spend your money on the so called features of those beginner cameras just get this one or higher model like 50d some on etc. you will not be disappointed at all. Its a little heavy and big but its takes fine pictures / beautiful pics.
Rating: - The Canon 40D is nothing short of amazing!
My wife grabbed one of the camera about 6 months ago and I've been drooling over it ever since. Canon DSLRs have always been excellent cameras, but this one is truly amazing. It's lightning fast, has great color (especially skin tones), and in kit form comes with an image stabilizing lens. The sensor auto cleans and can handle pretty low light without using the flash.

Rating: - Low price. Pro results.
There are two types of photographers: Those who use Canons and those who WILL be using Canons. For the money, this piece of photo equipment cannot be beat. Of all the features packed into this camera, the one that allows the photographer to change picture styles, including black and white, is, to me, the most amazing. Even when boosted to ISO 3,200, the noise is not a problem, and I mainly shoot at ISO 1,600 and produce crisp images when enlarged to 16 X 24. Also, the dust removal system is flawless. ... Read More
Rating: - Powerhorse that last forever
I have been using Canon 40D for two years. It is my second camera (my first camera is Pentax k100). It is big, solid and tough. I thought Pentax K100d is quite big, but it is nothing compare to this 40D. The grip is very ergonomic. I feel confidence handling it.
Body and control
The built quality of Canon 40D is excellent. It is made from magnesium alloy body. It is weather seal as well. It is made to withstand plenty of abuse. I dropped the camera once to the ground, and it still performs ... Read More

- Camera good but problem with lens
The camera body is great and I enjoy it.But the EF28-135 IS USM zoom died after only six weeks.The diaphragm somehow became dislodged while I was manually focusing the lens, and now it rattles around inside and the lens is unusable.I'll need to return it under warranty, but fortunately already had other lenses that fit the camera so I haven't been in a hurry.
