 Canon 40D review at PhotographyBLOG : DIWA member Mark Goldstein from PhotographyBLOG has reviewed the Canon EOS 40D digital SLR camera. The Canon 40D D-SLR features a 10.1 Megapixel CMOS sensor, 6.5 frames per second burst performance, a newly developed AF system and 3.0” LCD with Live View mode. The DIGIC III processor powers a burst rate of 6.5 fps, working with the image buffer to handle up to 75 Large JPEGs (17 in RAW) without pause. Images are processed at 14-bits for an expanded colour depth, providing smooth gradations and accurate colour reproduction. The 3.0-inch LCD displays a real-time image in Live View mode, including a selectable grid overlay and a live histogram that simulates image exposure.

 Canon EOS 40D - Exposure
According to Mark Goldstein: “The Canon EOS 40D D-SLR’s Highlight Tone Priority mode is designed improve the highlight rendition – digital cameras are often accused of producing harsh or ‘blown’ highlights with no detail. It does make a difference, but you have to look quite hard to notice it, and it’s not really any kind of breakthrough. The exposure system is very good indeed, and the multi-pattern metering reliably produce great shots with no user intervention.”
Canon EOS 40D - Picture quality and Design
Mark continues: “The fact is that the picture quality you get from the Canon EOS 40D is not significantly better than that you get from the EOS 400D or indeed any of the other 10-megapixel SLRs on the market right now. What you’re getting is a camera with more scope, more sophisticated controls and a better design and layout for those who already know one end of a camera from the other.” You want to learn more about the Canon EOS digital SLR camera?

About PhotographyBLOG
Mark Goldstein started his very active website PhotographyBLOG in January 2003. At first the one and only purpose was to let this site function as one of those popular web logs with Photography as main topic. But as we all know Photography is a pretty big subject to publish about so Mark decided to focus on some hot key points like mentioning all new introductions, reviews, reports from events like PMA and Photokina, sharing some impressive and creative photos and Mark's sole perspective of his feeling about this fascinating world of Digital Imaging. Mark is based in the UK, but his eagle-eye focuses global.
