Canon EOS 40D 10.1MP Digital SLR Camera with EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Standard Zoom Lens Reviews
EOS 40D is still offering best value even EOS 50D is going to be available.
Im pretty sure this IS A GREAT Camera I just had bad luck with mine. (Ive done extensive research before buying this camera and if this never happened. I had to rent the equipment and the store didn't have anything but the Mark III 1ds.@#$.@ Darn I got to play with an awesome Camera for a while at the same time managed to burn a hole in my wallet. Then Why would I give it 1 star. 5 stars for sure) Well I had to shoot a wedding and 2 days before the event the camera dies on me with a busy sign on the LCD and the buttons were unresponsive.
The EOS 50D has 15 megapixels and other improvements. The EOS 50D, which is the upgrade to the EOS 40D, was announced by Canon today. If you are considering the 40D then you might want to also take a look at the new 50D. Specifications are on Canon's web site, canonusa.com. Tks. It will be available in October.
It makes a great second body for my 1D MarkII that is a well tested workhorse. Improved sensor density, custom functions and 3" LCD for review are big pluses. Love this camera. The cleaner high ISO images from the DIGIC III processor and the Live View were the two main selling points. I love low light flash free photography. This is a super camera. All those familiar controls that make photography a smooth process (I'm sure Nikonians feel the same about their cameras).
I would guess this will drop the price of the 40D even more but I have no remorse. This body meets those demands in ACES. Much quieter than the 30D (and the MarkII). I decided to upgrade the 30D after waiting for a while. Build (much like the 30D) is solid with a few physical refinements and improvements. In keeping with all of my delayed decisions to upgrade in the past, Canon followed suite just weeks after my purchase by announcing the release of the 15MP DIGIC IV Canon 50D.
I like it. I haven't really had the camera long enough to fully test it but so far, it is outstanding. I've always been a Canon shooter so the feel and functions are familiar.
