The image quality of the Canon EOS 40D leaves little or in fact nothing to wish for. High ISO pictures are still usable. You can shoot using ISO 800 or 1600 without a problem. There is some noise but not annoyingly visible, even less when you convert the

Review Verdict: The seven models, from EOS D30 to the 40D, have changed drastically. The image sensor and processor took huge steps forwards and also the DSLR camera itself improved a lot. Can you still imagine how happy a 1.8-inch monitor on the back of a camera made yo

Canon is known as one of the best digital camera brands out there on the market today. Nikon is the only other company that can even compete with this behemoth, and that competition just got a little more heated with Canon's new release. The Canon EOS 40D

Product Rating: 4.75 star(s) Canon EOS 40D

Comments:
Canon's launch of the 40D was gazumped somewhat by Nikon's almost synchronised announcement of the D300. While the 40D features a robust set of new or improved features, Nikon went one better, at least on paper, albeit at a significantly higher price

Review Verdict: The 40D continues the evolutionary rather than revolutionary approach favoured by Canon over the past few years. Yes, it has more megapixels, but at 10.1mp versus 8.2 in the 20D/30D, this isn't a significant boost. Rather, the 40D's improvements, with som
