A great all around camera/lens combination November 5, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
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 10 Mpixel camera and had good results. Depth of colour and sharpness are first rate.
I recommend it highly.
Just get it October 24, 2008 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
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 custom functions. You can truly trick this camera out to suit your individual shooting style.
The body is rugged... I don't make a habit of dropping my gear like a schmuck, but if that is your disposition then you will appreciate the magnesium alloy body.
The size fits nicely in big hands and the weight is ideal over larger cameras such as the Mark II series which I have had the pleasure of shooting with.
I will not be upgrading to the new 50d. I will instead be upgrading to the new 5d mark II once that comes out. Only for my own gluttonous reasons though.
Take my word. This beast will serve you well!
dissatisfied October 19, 2008 2 out of 45 found this review helpful
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 I can't return it because I moved to Europe a week after bying it.
Excellent choice for Digital SLR October 12, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I did a lot of research on digital SLRs before my purchase. Based on those findings, I chose the Canon EOS 40D. So far it has performed as advertised and the photos are very good to excellent even in the "point-n-shoot" mode. I would definitely recommend this camera to my family and friends.
novice photographer October 9, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I read many reviews on amazon before purchasing this camera and its one of the best purchases I've ever made. I know very little about cameras but have learned a fair amount just reading about the functionality this camera offers. My wife and I went on a safari and peopled raved about our pictures. You will not be disappointed with this camera.
