| I simply can't decide which to get. I'm pretty new and here are my preferred photography,Spontaneous, Macro, Travel/Outdoor.I'm not sure if I'm right to take note of some points like dust reduction, auto focus, Image Stabilization, Live View and sensor noise. As from normal digital cams to this(gna be my first purchase), my stabilization skills suck a**. :\ Thanks in advance! |

| If you can get the 40D, go for it..... couple it up with Canon's IS lens and you'll never regret your decision. |

| I would forget about all of those and look into the Nikon D80, as well as offerings from Pentax (K20D high end, K200D entry level), and Sony Alpha series (formerly Minolta), A700 at the high end and A350 and A300 middle, and A200 entry level).The Nikon D80 is compatible with all autofocus Nikon lenses, the Pentax series is compatible with every Pentax lens ever made (adapter for screwmount available from Pentax), and the Sony is compatible with Minolta Maxxum AF lenses.Canon lenses are overpriced, and the compact point and shoot type are too fragile (Nikon too), for compact point and shoot cameras, look into Panasonic and Sony.Canon is all about marketing... Nikon and the others are about engineering. |

| i would recommend you the 40D camera.as a user of the canon 40D and also the Cannon Mark III camera, i would say that this is one of the best mid range camera available on the market. the body is fairly light and the agronomics is very good.I would also disagree that Cannon lenses are more expensive. some lenses in Cannon's range is because of the additional features installed in it. Cannon's lens are also offer more choices to your Camera.Finally, the last pro of getting the Cannon 40D is because it can support more 3rd party lenses. for example, there is a converter for Cannon EF mounts that enable you to use Leica lenses. |
