- Custom functions make this camera a breeze to use
I have owned this camera since June 2008, prior to this shot with Canon's PowerShot G2. So my review is based on upgrading from an old but still very goodpoint and shoot camera with manual controls to a modern SLR. Since there are obvious difference between the two I'll concentrate on some of the features I like: Custom setting (C1,C2,C3) and the My Menu setting.
The 40D has a multitude of options available, highlight recover, iso noise reduction, mirror lock up, bracketing, live ... Read More

What can I say about the Canon 40D that hasn't already been written in dozens of photography magazines and web forums?Probably not a whole lot! LOL!!!If you are seriously considering this camera, chances are you are already familiar with the brand if not the model by now so I will just highlight the things I've found useful and the things I have found annoying about this camera (and YES, there are some things I've found annoying).
First let me say that for a "mid level" DSLR, the ... Read More

- A great all around camera/lens combination
I'm not going into all the lurid details, but this is a GREAT camera and the 28-135 IS is the lens I use day to day with it.It gives a very good range of focal lengths and the IS feature helps with the camera shake at slow shutter speeds that all zoom lens suffer from.
My only caveat is that they're a bit heavy together.Not nearly as bad as some though!
If you can't afford the 50D this is an amazing value and the images are superb.I've printed up to 12x18 with this ... Read More
Rating: - Just get it
I shoot professionally full time specializing in advertising and weddings.When I got into advertising I was unsure if this 40d would produce a big enough file to accommodate billboards.I've been proven wrong.
10.1 megapixels is sufficient for full sized billboards.For weddings, in my experience anything larger than this file size would be overkill for the type of prints wedding couples want produced.
The color accuracy has amazed me as well as the endless list of ... Read More

- dissatisfied
I've paid the full price for a new camera, instead, the file numbering shows that's been used a lot before it got to me. I am dissatisfied in the way that the camera works, but Ican't return it because I moved to Europe a week after bying it.
