Editorial Reviews

Manufacturer Description

Building on the success of Canon's perennially popular "prosumer" EOS 20D and 30D models, the EOS 40D advances the state-of-the-art for mid-range digital SLR cameras, making it a natural first choice for advanced amateur photographers and entry-level professionals, and an ideal second body for more established photo pros.
Indeed, given the level of feature upgrades and improvements, technological wizardry, and user-requested creative controls, the Canon EOS 40D SLR's "prosumer" appellation may refer more to its accessible price point than to the exceptional quality, clarity, and resolution of the images it creates.

Customer Reviews

Not so complicated
I bought this camera for my trip to Europe and was very impressed with the quality of the pictures it takes. For being such a high-tech camera its also very easy to use. Most of the complicated features kick in automatically on their own when they are supposed to do. The camera is also a respectable size, not the smallest, but definitey not too big.

Awesome!
Out of the box the Canon 40D works great. I am very impressed how simple it is to shoot great shots witht this camera and lens combo. It has more features than most SLR's and I am very happy with my purchase. I highly recommend this camera and escpecially at this price point!
