novice photographer
I read many reviews on amazon before purchasing this camera and its one of the best purchases I've ever made. I know very little about cameras but have learned a fair amount just reading about the functionality this camera offers. My wife and I went on a safari and peopled raved about our pictures. You will not be disappointed with this camera.

Great for first time dSLR'er.
There is not much that I can say about this camera that hasn't already been said by others here on Amazon. What I will add is some personal perspective.
I have been using point and shoot digital cameras for years. I bought an S2 IS three years ago because I wanted a nice digital without spending dSLR money. That camera served me well, but after three years it has started to limit my creativity. After much research, including the reviews by others here on Amazon, I decided to go with the EOS 40D.
For me there was a toss-up between the XSi and the 40D, but what pushed me in the 40D direction was ultimately the size of the camera. I'm a big guy. When I held an XSi in my hands it just felt too small. The 40D felt just right in my hands. Another motivating factor was the kit lens. The EF 18-135 is far better than that which comes with the XSI.
After spending a week with the camera, I can say that I am fully satisfied. It takes great pictures and allows me a large degree of creativity. With the camera I ordered a guidebook that is helping a lot. As for the pictures, they have very little noise. As I take more and more pictures in the different modes, I am able to take better and better shots.
One important thing to mention for those upgrading from P&S is that RAW is amazing. I typically have better unfinished results with RAW than I ever do with jpg. After some finishing, they are unparalleled. I can't wait until I get some more experience. I already have people telling me they're willing to pay me for my shots.

Best Price on Canon SLR with Warranty
I was a bit worried about buying an expensive electronic item on-line, but I had done my research and I knew I wanted THIS camera. I received it promptly. The local camera store had tried to scare me saying that cameras bought on-line had no warranty or if they did, it would be an overseas warranty. Well, mine came with a warranty from the US of A! I was using this camera within hours of receiving it after charging the battery. It takes beautiful photos and it is easy to learn. Be sure to buy a memory card. I hadn't realized it didn't come with one. I saved money buying this camera at Amazon and it is a great SLR for an amateur with aspirations of becoming a professional.

Worthy Upgrade From Rebel XTI? Should you buy the XSI?
After using a Digital Rebel XTI since it's release, I decided to upgrade to the 40D. First impressions are 100% positive - extremely well made, balanced feel, excellent viewfinder, fast & reliable. Picture quality is excellent - lower noise levels at all ISO setting over the XTI. Is it worth the difference in price over the new XSI? In my opinion, that depends upon whether or not a rugged, better sealed body is important. (also note that the XSI is a 12mp sensor). My only complaint is the bundled 28-135mm IS lens - the effects of the IS are barely noticeable. If I had to do it over again, I would have just purchased the body. This lens does take great pictures and the bundled price was exceptional though...
Overall, a great camera for the money!

Digital Camera Reviews: Canon PowerShots SD600, SD630, SD700 ISHello! Today we continue with our Canon digital cameras reviews. But in this post we will dwell on another series: Canon PowerShot SD. If you are not against, we will act on our old worked-out scheme, i.e. compare several cameras of the same series but of different level of production, I mean features and capabilities. We will distinguish between their similarities and differences and note this down in 2 tables.
(But if you have any objections, advice or wishes, you are welcome with them any time! I’ll be extremely happy to read and to take them in consideration, as well as try to fulfill.)
And today we are going to have a look at Canon PowerShot SD 600, SD630 and SD700 IS that will be available in April 2006. To be more exact, now we’ll delimit their properties and next time we’ll discuss their features, all the pros and cons in a more detailed way.
