I'm thinking of selling my brand new 550d + kit lens to buy a 40d + an L lens or a few lenses, do you think this is a good idea? The 550d feels too plastic-y and small for me, and i have no real need for HD video.. do you think its a good idea?? Thanks :)
well i have a video camera already and wanted to take some basic pictures because im not a professional photographer haha. i just wanted something easy, reliable, and good picture quality.
.truth is film hasnt made any advances in technology cause it dosent need to.but thanks to the capitalist society we live in its become an expensive hobby specially in the case of darkrooms.and its all supply and demand.theress no supply hence the reason they dont even make kodachrome anymore. so conclusion dslrs are fine as long as your not running out to change you set up every year and buying some expensive camera you cant begin to utilize
hey creationphotography kodachrome is reversal which has no latitude as DID dslrs so what exactly are you comparing the two to?cause latitude no longer applies.color balance is losing its relevance as is grain and image size,speed,and post processing.its jerks like you that fail to admit thier weekend warriors and end up taking away the sincerity and friendly atmosphere this art form offers your argueing over how to take a picture and wouldnt begin to know how to fill a frame
Next comparation: a small car with an engine 1.1 55 hp vs a 2.5 180 hp.. hmmm one is 6x time expensive but maybe better.... :P just a joke. When I thouth buy a camera I never just thouth comparate the two, 450d vs 1000d vs a nikkon and olympus in the same plataform, yes, but this.... wow 450d is better :D
I bought a 40D 12 months ago. I must say that I would have bought the XTI if i'd just read up on them or seen a few of these vids but for me I was taken by the 30D I borrowed to try out first due to the ease and speed of setup for shots and scrolling through images etc. I'm glad I did as I do a bit of sports photography (bike racing) and when you need the speed it's great although I will say that a 450 or xti takes just as good a pic if setup right and if you can use the same lenses if upgrading
why are people comparing the 40d to CANON 1D MARK3 its like comparing me to tom cruise come on people...who has 3 grand for a camera these days,maybe a few of you but honestly...1300 bucks for a body is pricy alone compare it to other cameras in its category dont diss this guy for showing u a minor difference...you act like he had to go take a second mortgage on his house in order to put together a guud youtube video. fucking losers.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
It's funny that the XTi sounds better than the 40D, the 40D just sounds like 2 pieces of plastic hitting eachother up till you get the 1D, which sounds like a real camera again.
Please DO NOT COMPARE these 2 cameras with the mark Series, it is a stupid comparison, it is like comparing a chevy with a corvette, please watch and learn Terorjohn
bleagesalibe i had canon rebel tsi 12.2 mp, after reserching online i junped to 40D and sold the rebel wich felt like a litle toy besides 40D, and the best thing , i got 40D for only 680dlls after a cupon i had..
By the way, I don't know how you can even say that Canon > Nikon, talking about the cameras. The Nikon D300 absolutely kills the Canon 40D in almost every aspect. Same with the D3 vs the 1ds Mk III... yeah the Mk III has a lot more megapixels, but most people don't need anything higher than 12.1 (which the D3 offers) anyway.
But as I said at the start, who gives a shit what gear you use? If you can make great photos with it, then you're all set!
what are you talking about? The Nikon D300's AF system is practically revolutionary. It has 51 AF points, while the 40D only has 9 points. The D300 also has a 3D tracking system.
If you're talking about the SPEED of the autofocus, that mostly depends on the lens, since all of Canon and Nikon's new lenses have the AF built right into them. What are you comparing? A Nikon 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 to a Canon 70-200mm f/2.8?? In that case, the canon would obviously be faster since that's a pro lens.
I'm purchasing a 40D next week as my "2nd Camera"...saving the real bux for a Mark III 1Ds. Have you heard that sucker on continuous shooting mode? It's a machine gun on crack.
Big wows!! every decent photographer knows the differance between a powerwinder and a motor drive.The 40d is a pro camera and the xti is for enthusiasts.The pro cameras have always had motor drives.Whats the point of this video???
Nice demo. The 40D sure is like a machine gun. Drop the Buzz-Lightyear and Incredible Hulk nonsense though as it doesn't go with a technical demo. Cheers!
The 40d used is cheap now and are well worth it if you can get a good example.

Canon XS (successor of XTi's sibling XT) has unlimited continuous shooting. And it costs a fraction of 40D.
supercoolmario 3 years ago
The XS can only take 5 consecutive RAW photos before filling it's buffer memory. Not useful for people who need the quality.
And the XS sucks in every other way besides JPEG shooting to the 40D
