Summary: If you have kids, you want this camera
Comment: We have moved our way up step by step from a cheap kodak point and click to this Canon 40D over the course of 2 years. I have been using this camera for about a year now, and love it.
It's strongest feature is its jekyll and hyde personality, which is controlled by the little knob on the left side of the camera. My wife likes to take pictures, but really just wants to pick up the camera and push the button. For that all she has to do is turn the aforementioned knob to the "green square", and the camera functions just like a point and click. She gets fantasitc quality pictures with just the push of a button.
Now when you really what let the camera fly, turn that knob to Tv, Av, or M and hyde comes out to play. Once in one of these modes you have complete control over the camera settings and can be as creative as you are brave. 6 frames per second is enough to catch your kids doing almost anything, catch birds mid flight, and a variety of other actions shots. You get a large volume of shots, and because it is digital, keep only the ones you want.
With the intro of the 50D the 40D has become more affordable, and even with the kit lens will blow away any point & click. If you have kids, you want this camera.

Summary: My first DSLR
Comment: After doing 2 months of research on this and some other cameras, I finally took the plunge and bought this gem - my first ever DSLR (I owned an a film Olympus before this).
I must say I am amazed by this camera and what all it can do. I must also mention that I got an amazing deal on the camera - I got it for $660 after all taxes and shipping and everything that you can imagine from Costco, so I am even happier about it.
I bought the legendary 24-105 f4 IS lens (from Amazon) to go with the camera, and I am blown away by the results.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Too big and heavy!
Comment: I gave my wife a Canon 40D for Christmas. When it arrived, I was amazed at the weight of the product. My wife now doesn't even want to charge it and try it out, so this review is no reflection on the quality of the photos. It's just that she couldn't imagine lugging that big heavy thing around Europe strapped to her neck. Therefore, if she kept the camera it would need to be reserved for "art" photography, a pretty expensive item for such limited usefulness.
It also seems very complicated to learn to use. My wife has a history with pre-digial SLR's and has taken college classes on photography, so she's no novice, but Amazon recommends a 324-page book on the camera's use, and that's quite a large commitment.

Summary: Lovin it
Comment: I finally pulled the trigger on a camera to upgrade from my XT. My XT served me well over the past 2 years but I have really outgrown that camera. I couldn't really justify the extra ~300 for a 50d so I ended up with the 40. I couldn't be happier. There isn't much I can say that hasn't already been said. It's a great camera, solid construction and takes great pics.

Summary: Great product, terrible packaging
Comment: This camera is superb; I'm in agreement with most of the other comments here.
I'd strongly suggest getting David Busch's book "Canon EOS 40D Guide to Digital Photography". Personally, I think it's required to get the most out of the Camera; it complements the manual superbly.
My only complaint was in the packaging used in the shipping. The camera box was poorly covered in bubble wrap, so it shifted out of that during shipping. Honestly, guys, is using a little tape too much to ask?
Even worse was the fact that the UPS box was partially open when it was taped shut. The camera was CLEARLY visible to anyone who looked at it.
Why not just put a great big "STEAL THIS $1000 camera" sign on the box and be done with it?
I've noticed no problems with the camera since it arrived, but I think I got lucky. So check your camera very carefully when you get it.
I'm dinging this 1 star solely because of the terrible shipping packaging. Otherwise, great service and a great price.
