I waited 20 months since the Canon 30D came out to buy an SLR. I'm not disappointed in the least. Recommended fully, hands down you won't regret it.
Awesome! January 15, 2008

This is easily the best camera I have ever owned. I can't fault it and it has produced some of the best pictures I have ever seen. It's expensive but you get what you pay for and I think this was worth every penny!
Great camera - but FOREIGN buyers take note!! January 15, 2008

As bought from Amazon the camera only carries a warranty valid in the U.S. & Canada. Even if your customer registration with Amazon shows that you reside abroad and presumably will have a problem with any warranty issues Amazon will ship to any U.S.-address you give. So take care!
Advance amiture SLR Camera Canon EOS 40D January 14, 2008
I purchased this camera Canon EOS 40D as the next step to replace my Canon Digital Rebel (EOS 300D). Though the price tag is high for people like me who are on a tight budget, it was well worth it in the end. It is worth visiting the Canon web site prior to purchase to be informed of the features and performace. I am trying to capture images of birds, often in flight and something capable of numerous continous shots was needed for me. This camera has that second only to the PRO line which would cost over $4,000.00. Once you own one, read the manual carefully, there are a lot of additional settings that passed me by until I carefully read the entire manual. Compared to some of the other SLRs that I have stood next to while photographing, this camera is noticably quieter though not silent.
This is a full size body (larger than the Canon Rebel XTI) and with the extended battery pack whick is worth purchasing for those (like me) who will do full day outings. You can also attach a hand strap that causes the right hand to feel like it is gloved; it eases the need to grip the camera so firmly during extended outdoor picture taking sessions. In addition for those who haven't tried the extended battery pack, it also has another shutter button, and quick function controls like the camera has in the shutter button area so you can hold the camera at the bottom (more naturally) while taking those vertical images.
The lens that comes with this kit is very capable. I use the stablisation mode in most situations and have got great results. With the sensor being smaller than standard 35mm film (the 1.6X conversion factor) the 28mm will not seem wide enough of a view for some cases but other than that it does a wonderful job for the price.
In RAW format, memory will be used up quick (compared to my previous 6mp camera) so I recommend 2GB memory cards or larger for RAW. With the price of memory cards finally dropping the average price; look for a good deal on cards with 120X (10MB)write/read speeds or higher. By doing so you will avoid holding this camera back and enjoy nearly no wait for the next shot whether you just shot single or a continuous serious of shots. For those intertained with performance, in JPEG, I can get up to, if not more than 60 continous focused shots before the camera needs a moment to catch up.
Canon EOS 40D review January 13, 2008

The Canon 40D is an excellent camera. Add a Canon 17 - 55mm f2.8 IS lens and you have a very good low light camera. I liked the Canon 10D before I got the 40D and was surprised how much better this camera is. The 3 inch LCD and live view is a real improvement.
