CanonEOS 40D cameraNov 04, 2009 My son has the same camera so I knew what to expect. I'm just learning but so far it is much easier to handle than I thought! In short, I love it so far!!
40D is a classicNov 03, 2009 This camera was given to me as a gift nearly two years ago and I am still thrilled with it. It replaced a 350D and I have never looked back - the larger body size, picture quality, much improved controls and all around utility make this camera a winner. A friend of mine recently picked up a 50D and I don't have the heart to tell him that I think the 40D is a better deal.
This camera was a steal when it was selling at $1300 and the lower prices make this a no brainer. If you want a C sized format, do yourself a favor and get it.
great for outdoorOct 29, 2009 I'm a professional photographer with my own studio and quite a few years of experience under my belt. I was looking for a third camera to have as backup/gruntuserfriendly/thirdangle. I use religiously my 5D's and the ever sturdy, ole' pal-o-mine, 20D (which I may never get rid of.) I wanted a camera that was worth it's value and easy to use. (I use this mostly for my 3rd hands that are just learning.#
I have been very impressed with the quality of photographs the 40D comes up with when doing outdoor photography. I honestly was quite surprised and cannot say enough good things about it. When it comes to indoor/low light though, #ie. no flash ceremonies), I have found it lacking. I wish it had been designed with more custom function options. Mirror lockup is a godsend.
I love canon and strongly recommend their cameras. I AM a canon girl. What's that saying? "Owning a nikon doesn't make you a photographer. It makes you a nikon owner."
The 40D is a great camera! Just don't expect it to blow you a way in low light.

Error 99Oct 17, 2009 I bought this 1+ year back . first one I bought had a image split issue . the photo is taken is broken into 2 images . so I returned to Amazon and they send me a new one . great Amazon customer service , but 2 nd one I have now is giving Error 99 ( this seems to be a common issue for Cannon , please search error 99 in the google for cannon). once you get this error it seems you cannot do anything . it seems camera is dead . so I just passed 1 year and camera is dead . I am really disappointed with Cannon.
it seems that Error 99 is common to all cannon EOS Camera's . not just for 40 D . it is for 10 , 20 , 30 and 50 D as well .
read following article . they all have this Error 99 . by reading web it seems cannon customer service also horrible . beware if you are going to buy cannon . my 1000's of hard earned money was wasted . stay away from cannon

Great camera Great priceSep 13, 2009 This is the second 40D our family purchased. The new 50D is out and the 60D will be coming out soon. This was the only place I could find the 40D still for sale and the price was right. A refurbished 40D on Canon's web site was the same price with only a month warranty. This one was new with a year warranty and $250 less than I paid for my daughter's a year ago.
