I got one before too but my friend kept bugging me to sell it to him and I finally gave up. Now I regret to do that.

butcherman Senior Member More info | Jul 12, 2012 09:31 | #17 I had one until a month ago and I dropped it and it died! Was insured through State Farm so I added a little money and replaced it with a refurbished 60D. If I hadn't dropped it, I would have kept it until it died on its own. Great camera!

Now that you've moved to the 60 are you missing the 40? I'm trying to figure out if I want to sell my 40 and get a 60.

Norcal29 Member 49 posts Joined Nov 2005 More info | I had a difficult time deciding which Canon DSLR I wanted to start with. Shot a lot of film, but couldn't afford a 7D that I would like to have. After looking at a lot posts - you would be surprised to see how many professionals are using a 40D as a backup. That sold me and I am thrilled with my 40D. In short - enjoy your 40D it is a great camera. Ron

I love my 40D with the Tamron and my YN flash. So much fun to use! 40D with Tamron 17-50MM f/2.8 & Canon 85MM f/1.8 & Canon 55-250MM f/4-5.6
