Canon EOS 40D Digital Camera with 17-55 mm lens

After initially using a Canon EOS400d, we moved to the Canon EOS40d. In comparison to its smaller brother, the 40d feels a lot more substantial. It's a magnesium alloy body - which gives the camera some substance.

We run a small photographic company, and attend a number of special occasion events, primarily Civil Partnerships. We need a reliable, solid camera that can deliver great results time after time.

So far the 40d hasn't let us down. We purchased our first couple of units within 2 weeks of their initial launch in 2007, and have been happily clicking ever since. We have now taken literally 'thousands' of shots using these bodies, and we've got some seriously happy customers.

If you're looking for a good quality, rugged and practical camera - this is the one for you. There are a huge number of additional accessories available - however if you're going to buy a 40d with a 'stock' lens - choose the 17mm-85mm rather than the 18mm-55mm. It's a much better piece of kit!

If you want to know more about the 40d - don't hesitate to ask us, we're happy to help (even though we don't sell cameras!!..)
