Canon 40D

Pros: Constructive quality, burst, speed (1/8000), ergonomics, low price of used, RAW very good.

Cons: Annoying noise after 800 ISO, high weight with L optics and battery grip, live view almost useless.

Opinion: I was looking for a DSLR to start "getting serious" and by chance I found a 40D at a very low price (100 euros). I fell in love with it as soon as I got familiar with the controls. Solid, handy, if in good hands does not regret newer sensors. Ample opportunity to customize its functions, combined with decent optics works very well, and with its burst of 6 fps can still say its even for photo hunting. Used for macro photos, the not-so-great live view is also useful, the zoom function of which helps for focus stacking, while for use in action it is practically useless. With the live view active, the battery life drops a lot. VERY workable RAW files, as long as you don't overdo the crop and don't go to very high ISO. In short, it is a machine largely sufficient for the neophyte and for the evolved amateur, despite age, yet another planet compared to the entry levels as series 1300D, 500D, 400D. The fact that there is automatic sensor cleaning is not to be overlooked.
