I really do like the 40D a lot but sometimes I'm afraid the weather might hurt the camera. I have this and a 30D and I'm not confident in shooting in rainy or dusty situations. Other than that, it's a fine camera. Looking at a 5D for the studio.

I have owned this camera for a couple of months, and I think that the "testers" at cnet need their heads examined. The low light ability of this camera is phenomenal. I would ask the national Canon rep to stop by your offices with a different camera

It's been nearly two years since I reviewed the Canon EOS 30D , and in that time the market for mid-range semi-professional digital SLRs has become a lot more crowded. While Canon is still the undisputed worldwide DSLR market leader, it no longer has

I brought it to my daughter's graduation. I was able to get great images even in very challenging lighting conditions. Focus is on the spot and I was able to get great images even in subdued lighting.

I've used a wide spectrum of digital SLRs , from entry-level models up to pro models. Once you have a taste of the capabilities of a professional camera, you can't easily go back to a digital SLR that's less full-featured; likewise, if you want to st
