Canon presents the EOS 40D, a high-tech reflex camera designed for experienced and amateur photographers alike. The EOS 40D contains all the attributes of its predecessor, the EOS 30D, but now has improved performances, including the 10.1 effective megapixel CMOS sensor and larger 3? screen with direct aim function. Inside its sturdy, all-weather, magnesium alloy casing, the EOS 40D packs a wide range of technologies to ensure excellent results in all situations. The EOS 40D offers 9 cross-type AF points and a Canon DIGIC III processor to adapt to all your shots, so your photos turn out bright and clear and in perfect detail. Meanwhile, the EOS 40D will reduce backlighting, reflections and shadows. This reflex camera is low on noise and has a burst mode at a rate of 6.5 images per second. Thanks to the wide range of shooting modes, including night portrait, depth, speed or open priority, the creative possibilities are endless! The EOS 40D even has Pictbridge connectivity and WiFi technology for wireless file transfers and direct printing (WiFi adapter optional). Compatible with Canon EF and EF-S lenses, and with Speedlite EX flashes, the EOS 40D lets you take digital photos of professional calibre!Note: camera sold without lens
Customer Review: Wildlife shots should never be missed
The camara is great, I have stepped up from a 350d and used to use a EOS3 in the days when slide film was the best I could find.
If your going to use it to do wildlife photography the camera is unbeatable for the money, at 6 FPS you should never miss a shot and with such a large LCD screen it is so easy to check the shot is in focus whilst in the feild any mistakes can be corrected there and then. A 4GB card will still hold over 1000 shot in high setting (not RAW)
I am really pleased with this Chritmas present to myself and am now trying to pursuade somebody else to buy one… Canon have done a great job with this one.
It helps having great lenses (which Canon are also very good at) but having a great camera behind them is very important, if you really care how the pictures are going to come out this is a great machine for the enthusiast.
Customer Review: Shutter Noise
This is not a full review as such, more of an addition to what has already been said.
One issue regarding noise, there is one mode for silent shooting.
Live View mode also includes new Silent Shooting, which is made possible by an electronic 1st-curtain shutter on the CMOS sensor that enables shooting with the mechanical shutter completely open. Since there is no shutter cocking noise, operation is almost completely silent.

Customer Review: good for newby
having never gone over to digital camaras before i wanted a camara that would be very simple to use and give good clear pictures for around ?50. This fills all of this. the software is easy to use and transfering pictures is a breeze. even a night out with unsteady hands gave great results! it is light and looks more expensive than it is, a pleasure to use, and with a memory card and rechargable batterys complete.
Customer Review: Excellent.
My parents bought me this camera for Christmas - for a bargain price of ?45 from ASDA, I might add - along with a 2GB memory card, and I am so pleased with it. It goes everywhere with me - it’s very light and handy for travel, fitting easily into my handbag and slightly less easily into my pockets. It comes with a strap, which is excellent if, like me, things are prone to leaping unexpectedly from your hands, and is really easy to use on the Auto setting to take quick snaps of your daily adventures, and it’s also very simple to change flash settings, with a nice setting for preventing red-eye - handy for those blue-eyed people you know.
For those more camera-savvy who are interested in more high-tech photography, the scene settings are quite varied, with settings for snow scenes, action shots, self portraits and many more. It also has a good macro setting for taking close-up photographs, as well as a very capbable auto-focus with center-focus and multi-focus settings which I’ve found help to take clear, sharp pictures whatever the subject. It also features a fairly decent capability for taking videos - although a high-capacity memory card is recommended for those who do want to make a lot of use out of the video function, as they take up a lot of space. Videos have to be uploaded to a computer in order to play sound and I haven’t yet previewed any videos on my computer, but the image playback on the camera screen is of quite a good quality and it’s extremely simple to take a video with the camera; simply switch the setting to ‘video’ and then press the shutter button to record. The camera also features the ability to crop photos and ‘One Touch technology’, which is a really simple photo-editor built into the camera. It’s not quite Photoshop, and it doesn’t work very well on all pictures, but some pictures can be made to look much brighter and clearer with just a few button presses. It’s also really easy to review the pictures you have taken (simple press the ‘review’ button!), and the camera displays both how many picutres you have taken (via a photo number in the top corner of each photograph) and how many you have left to fit onto your memory card, so you’ll never run out of space without warning. With the Easychare software for your computer you can easily arrange your photos into albums both on your computer and on your camera. Another extremely helpful feature is the Help/Information button - for every option on all of the camera’s different menus, you simply have to press this button and it tells you exactly what each option does. It’s just like having a manual built into your camera, and far easier than having to check the index of a paper manual whenever you get a bit lost while you’re learning how your camera works. I’ve noticed that some people find the camera’s lack of an integral battery and chrager to be a slight drawback, but I disagree. Instead of your camera having to be out of action while it charges, you simply have to put new batteries in. However, with regular AA batteries you might find this to be a very expensive venture - I recommend instead buying two Kodak Ni-MH AA rechargable battery packs and a charger for them. I’ve found that these batteries have a comparatively long life (around 4-7 days, depending on on frequency of use) for each charge, and while one set is recharging you can use the other set. All in all, so far I have found it to be an excellent camera choice, whether for a beginner or an experienced photographer. It’s by far worth more than the bargain sale price that my parents purchased it for, and is even worth paying more for it than it’s priced here on Amazon. I have no doubt that there are better cameras out there, but if you’re not willing or able to spend hundreds of pounds then I truly recommend this camera - you’ll be hard-pressed to find another camera of its calibre for less than ?100.
