What are you waiting for?
Strengths: Live View, 6.5fps, fast focusing, sensor cleaning, custom user settings, histogram.
Weakness: Auto focus on Live View mode is only available with the mirror up. Setting the auto focus mode in LV mode is a custom fn setting and not intuitive at first.
I've been shooting with a 20D for a couple of years now and was impressed with it. The step up to the 40D is a no brainer for me. The LV mode is very handy for macros on a tripod and given it's quiet shutter option, great for situations where noise can post a problem. I wrote a negative about the auto focus in LV mode but the settings can be stored in one of the custom user settings (like I did)...

Canon EOS 40D
Strengths: High picture quality. Wide choice of lens and accessories. Speed and versatility.
Weakness: Me! Can get a little heavy.
A truly wonderful camera and pleasure to use. I moved from a point-n-shoot camera to a digital SLR and spent many months deciding between Canon, Nikon and others. In the end I went for the Canon EOS 40D for its: Live View mode, 3" screen, positive reviews, wide selection of lens, iso range, image quality, time to first photo speed, body quality and great value. There are many features in this...

Excellent replacement for the Canon EOS 20D
Strengths: Live View mode to get focus just right; very low noise at higher ISO; solid construction; 3 inch LCD
Weakness: A bit pricey but on par with "equivalent" DSLRs from other manufacturers
I have had a Canon EOS 20D for just over three years and I did not see much of an improvement in the EOS 30D. The EOS 40D is a gigantic leap in technology and features. The consecutive shots speed is very impressive and it has a very fast startup time so you will not miss a shot. I use my DSLR for everyday shots as well as astronomical images shot through a telescope. This camera is the best...

Canon 40D
Strengths: LCD size and view-ability; User defined menu options for a quick find; Sturdy build; dust eliminator system
Weakness: I wish there was the option to view the "grid" thru the viewfinder.
I went from a 20D to the 40D, so I was already familiar with the basic layout of the camera. I love many of the newer features. I wish the camera came with a LCD protector. Seems a waste to submit it to the elements when it means so much to the use of the camera. I think the ability to view thru the LCD is neat, but perhaps a bit over-rated. It many assist when shooting macros on a tripod in very...

Canon 40D
Strengths: Dynamic range, high-ISO performance, large LCD, live view, live histogram.
Weakness: Bottom buttons activate unintentionally, mildly weather resistant.
The 40D is a worthy upgrade from my 3 year old 20D. I see more details in high-contrast images thanks to the 14-bit converter and highlight tone priority. High-ISO performance is slightly better than the 20D despite a 2MP increase. The much larger LCD is welcome, especially for manual focus using live view. Live histogram helps with proper exposure for high-contrast images. The new ISO button...
