Canon 40D

Pros: Robust, reliable, excellent ergonomics, button layout optimal, realistic color rendering and complexion (in daylight), good speed burst, excellent buffer in RAW

Cons: My specimen has a tendency to underexpose by about 1/3 of STOP, poor white balance in artificial light, JPEG file color-washed, soft, ISO exploited in a satisfactory way to value 800, the display resolution insufficient.

Opinion: Housing purchased in 2009 at a price of 630 euro today still working with assets of about 70,000 shots. I immediately had a good feeling at the level of maneuverability thanks to the excellent ergonomics and balance, well-designed layout of the controls well distributed which allows you to change all important parameters of recovery and reading without looking away from the viewfinder. Shot exclusively in RAW, JPEG I find it very bad. The AF module is perfect in the middle with a good sensitivity, side steps in the presence of very low light are struggling. Tracking AF mode is rather unreliable, if photographing sporting events (I tested in motocross and skiing) better off and the AF prefocheggiare. Dynamic range a little tablet that tends to close the shades. Many of the shots that work in post, in particular for the recovery of the shadows in the images at higher contrast. Regarding the performance at high ISO in low light the limite is 800 more than the noise becomes important. The ISO 3200 in the shadows have a noise in the chroma very intense with marked banding. The display has a resolution too low, you can not determine whether the image is properly focused. Despite all for my needs I have never felt the need to move to another body until last month I have not had a chance to try a 6D will be very short the next purchase.
