 Canon Came up with the Perfect SLR digital camera. October 27, 2007
2 out of 4 found this review helpful
Finally, an answer to all the earlier problems for digital SLR Cameras!
What we've all been waiting for: The built-in sensor cleaner---no more shipping your camera off to have the sensor cleaned. Other features are the shooting speed, which equals a film camera. There's over 10 million mega pixels, enough for all your professional work, a large LCD screen, and a built-in fill flash. I'm happy.
The price was right and included the shipping. thank you!
Canon EOS 40D 10.1MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only)
An EXCELLENT camera October 22, 2007

It's hard to write a meaningful review when I've barely begun to get familiar with my new 40D, but so far I am NOT disappointed. I have found no problems; all functions appear to work as advertised. One word of advice: if you're accustomed to viewing the shot via the LCD, it CAN be done with the 40D, but is awkward. Get used to using the optical (through-the-lens) viewfinder, like a film camera. You can still see what you've just shot on the LCD screen, with adjustable viewing time. Typical of Canon, this appears to be a fine camera, with features for the beginner through advanced photographers. You can start out with "point-and-shoot" (automatic everything), and advance to as many manual settings as you like. At this point, I recommend the 40D! Be sure to buy a lens to match the quality of the camera; I suggest an "L" series lens. Beware of "starter" lenses, which degrade the quality and which you will want to upgrade almost immediately.
Best of the Best. October 21, 2007

Greetings to all;
I am not a professional photographer, just an amateur with enough economical means to support my photography hobby. I just received this machine, it is simply fantastic. I wanted to upgrade my Digital Rebel XT (which by the way has been a loyal friend) and I decided to go with the 40D since I think the 5D is a bit over priced for my needs. In any rate, the machine has a great LCD screen, the controls and menus are easy to find and use and if you are familiar with Canon products it will not be all that hard to figure the machine out since controls are very similar in nature to the rest of the Canon products. The machine has an immense amount of features that I have not discovered yet but one of the features that I like the most is the "live view" feature which just like a point and shoot lets you preview the shot before you actually shoot it. I would not want to get all technical in this review at this time, there are many technical reviews on this machine already plus I can't consider my self to be savvy enough to be able to technically elaborate on this product, however, if you can afford it, by all means go for it, I am quiet sure you won't regret it, from the way it feels in your hands to the way the shutter sounds after firing off a shot. All and all impressive machine. I am looking forward to use it for as long as time permits.
 LCD Monitor doesn't work... Beware, ISO setting is auto-only for basic shooting... October 21, 2007

Five stars for the camera - 1 star for myself for being so stupid not to realize why the LCD monitor wouldn't work (as has been rigthfully pointed out, it's an SLR, not a P&S). As I mentioned in my unedited review, I'll leave the technical reviews to others since so many good ones have been written already. Canon was very helpful in answering my emails concerning the LCD monitor, but it was thanks to the Amazon community that I realized how dumb my earlier review was.
I have removed any other negative and irrelevant comments from my review, so if you read it before, you are not mistaken when thinking that stuff is missing. Great camera, nice grip, highly recommended - though perhaps a bit of a stretch for someone who's coming from P&S. I used a Nikon 8008 for many years, before "falling" for the convenience of the advanced features of the 9MP Fuji E900 - which I still use for less intrusive shots.
Very, very good October 20, 2007

Very briefly, what would have been my first doubt: yes, it uses the same sensor as the XTi, but also: yes: the image quality IS better then the XTi. Images are smoother, they post-process much better. Bigger viewfinder alone was enough to make me happy for getting it. Handling is great, only wish the buttons below the LCD were different color or marked better, in dim light they tend to disappear. It's big, heavy and solid, a joy to use.
