Canon - 40D Review Summary
Canon is well known for their high quality cameras; our reviewers say the Canon 40D digital camera is no exception. Marketed more towards the experienced photographer than the just-learning, casual picture taker, this digital camera can be used by both. Though reviewers describe Canon 40d cameras as a "wee bit heavy," they claim it is totally worth it for the high speed, big viewing screen, and terrific image quality that this camera delivers. Users should expect these Canon digital cameras to be well-made, fast, and efficient, even including such extra features as automatic sensor cleaning and an awesome dynamic range. As one reviewer happily states, "[owners expect] a lot from this camera and Canon deliver[s]."

After shooting for over 25 years, I just bought myself a Canon 40d DSLR with a 28-135 telephoto zoom lens and I love them both. For years I carried a Canon XT DSLR with the standard 18mm to 55mm lens and a 70mm to 200mm L lens for backup, but I find the 40d puts me in a whole new world as far as...

The Canon 40D is a amazing camera. The color on this baby and the features it has is amazing for a beginining amateur photography. The 40D is great even when you want to go it professionally. It's easy to see the pictures, and not to mention the Image Stabilization helps alot when it comes to taking photographs. It is also great for portrait photographs, and is easy to learn quickly. I've never seen a camera that takes such good photos for a new photographer entering the field. This by all means is a good camera!

The auto focus works well, the menu is user friendly.
My only complaainy is it is a little heavy, but I think this is true of most DSLRs.

i bought this camera as an upgrade to my Canon Rebel. I initially chose it because of the base price, which is quite reasonable for a professional camera. The kit lens isnt bad, but I upgraded my lenses after having the camera for about a year.
The camera is super easy to use, and is a great value for intermediate photographers
