For elite photographers who accept nothing but the best, the Canon EOS 40D is head and shoulders above competing SLRs in its class. This kit even includes a 28-135mm lens as a packaged deal. Outstanding, 10.1 megapixel detail is captured to the CMOS sensor then processed by the DIGIC III Image Processor. Canon’s large-area CMOS sensor enables stunningly clear photographs with a wide tonal range. A durable, rugged magnesium-alloy exterior makes the EOS 40D a great choice for active field work. Supporting a wide range of accessories including interchangeable lenses, remote controls, and even a wireless file transmitter, the EOS 40D is a step ahead of Canon’s previous SLR models in terms of technology and performance.

EOS 40D Kit: The lens makes it a bargain.

I had been using my Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel for six years.  Thousands of photos had passed over its sensor.  I had watched as newer cameras steadily increased the number of pixels in the sensor and as steadily decreased the levels of light at which clean images could be... Read full review »
