The Spirit of Photography. Welcome to the next generation of digital SLR photography—The Canon EOS 40D. This feature-packed SLR combines Canon’s tremendous know-how in both the digital and photographic worlds, creating a camera that not only does everything one would expect of a traditional digital SLR, but one that incorporates staggering leaps forward in technological innovation.

Canon’s Amazing CMOS Sensor Massive Files, Better Detail Superlative Image Quality EOS 40D’s 10.1 Megapixel Canon CMOS Sensor (Actual size) Canon’s new 10.1-million pixel CMOS sensor uses technology straight from the professional EOS-1D Mark III. It’s totally re-designed, reaching new levels of lightgathering efficiency and low-noise performance. The APS-C size sensor has the same effective lens conversion factor (1.6x) as the previous EOS 30D.

If you wait before focusing, the EOS 40D’s Self Cleaning Sensor is automatically activated, ensuring no dust interferes with the next photo. Solid, Magnesium Construction The EOS 40D has a solid, substantial feel that complements its compact dimensions.

It offers 0.95x magnification, a 26.4° angle of view and a 22mm eyepoint. It makes it easy to compose images, and with all relevant shooting information, including ISO and a new Black and White icon displayed right in the viewfinder, it’s easy to change settings without moving the camera away from the eye.

The sensor has an electric first-curtain shutter function that enables shooting with the EOS 40D’s mechanical shutter completely open. As a result, it’s possible to minimize the sound of the shutter cocking, or (in mode 2) postpone it, making the camera barely audible as you take a shot.

The Genius of the EOS System Lens-Based Image Stabilization for Better Results To combat image blur, Canon’s Optical Image Stabilizer technology uses motion sensors and a high-speed microcomputer built directly into the lens. The sensors analyze vibrations and apply correction via a special stabilizing lens group that shifts the Optical Image Stabilizer OFF “ ©Douglas Kirkland This image in Shanghai was one which I saw as I looked up towards the sky in the center of my hotel.

Canon Quality from Pupil to Print ©Bruce Dorn Advanced Printing Without a Computer The EOS 40D offers an unprecedented level of in-camera control over image optimization with its Advanced Camera Direct capabilities. You can adjust images, using the Face Brightener and Red-eye Correction functions. With control over contrast, saturation, color tone and color balance levels, high image quality is attainable without post-production software.
