Hello all,
I guess this is the right place to post a question about a camera!
I currently have a very dated Canon 350D, which has served me very well for the past 2 years or so. I will be starting a photography business with my Dad, which will hopefully run along side my Uni course.
I would like to upgrade my camera to a 40D
I work in a camera shop/studio so I do know what I want. However we don't stock Canon, so (until I go to Jessops) I cant have a play with a 40D.
To start with, I don't have any specific questions, but how do you like it? How is noise control at high ISO, is it comfy, does it feel well built etc?
Please if you could spare a few seconds to write a couple of sentences worth of review!
I have looked into a few reviews of the 50D and for the extra cash it doesn't really offer much more than megapixels. This isn't much of an issue as 10 mp in RAW format with a good lens is perfectly acceptable. However still... anyone with experience?
I am not interested in swapping over to Nikon or Sony or other, so please don't suggest anything other than Canon. This may sound a bit blind, but I have accumulated a very large amount of Canon equipment and it would be stupid to try and replace it from scratch with another brand.
I will probably ask some more questions but lets just start with these :)
Thanks a bunch.
