Which camera also has nearly as many settings to offer as the EOS 40D? Focus points can be set precisely, overexposure indicator warns unloved surprises Tonwertpriorität increases the dynamic range, Live View with zoom function allows for better image assessment in difficult light conditions or macro photography. Three Custom functions allow individual settings. The autofocus reacts nine cross-type sensors blazing fast. The case makes a very sophisticated look and is comfortable to hold, even when using telephoto lenses. The operation via side wheel, thumb wheel and joystick is perfectly solved. The program modes are very clear. Coming from a EOS 350 D, is certainly fascinated by this camera. After approximately 4,000 photos I miss on the camera really only a slightly higher screen resolution of the monitor and a stabilizer in the housing. Then you would have to buy these inexpensive on the lenses. The camera is clearly designed for ambitious amateur photographers who do not want to unnecessarily biggest spenders on housing. Because for good pictures you need to first of all good lenses. The successor model is certainly still a shade better, but for the price difference can already realize a telephoto lens from the L-series. The bottom line is you drive all this better, because the lens is the recording quality is most important. The camera is a recommendation that will exploit all the creative possibilities in terms of image design, depth of field, exposure bracketing, from sports to Macro Photography for those. The bright prism viewfinder delivers in everyday life even in twilight excellent opportunities to capture relevant motives safely. For the relatively small money, the camera is a recommendation.
