Canon EOS 40D Reviewed by Digital SLR Guide

Another website to cover the Canon EOS 40D DSLR extensively is Digital SLR Guide. They have reviewed the Canon EOS 40D here. The 40D is classified as a pro-sumer digital SLR. This means that its features are designed to be leveraged by advanced amateur photographers who really know their way around an SLR camera.

“The vast speed of the Canon 40D make this the ideal camera for action photographers.

And by action photographers, I mean die-hard, motocross / skateboard / football / NASCAR / wildlife action photographers. Sure, it can capture shots of your toddler in the backyard, but it’s overkill.

The Canon 40D will also suit anyone who enjoys taking photos of sporting events in low light conditions.

When you’re taking photos of fast-moving subjects in low light, the only way to freeze the motion is to use a fast shutter speed - in this case a fancy image stabilization system won’t do you a bit of good.

In low light, you can achieve fast shutter speeds by using a high ISO setting, which boost the sensitivity of the camera’s sensor, allowing it to absorb more light in less time.”
