I originally posted these in Permagrin's thread...

Good shots LM - I think that convinces me that the 40D can be a backup to a Mark II... 40D order in the future for sure.

these are all great shots, especially the birds and the horses. what the heck is a BIF??

"Birds in Flight". It can also be used for "built-in flash" when talking about cameras.

I just received my 40D this week, and only had the opportunity to play with it in the backyard with the kids....and had a dickens of a time with the autofocus.. It just was not catching it. I was using a 50mm f/1.8 as well....however, there are a ton of settings eluding to the autofocus....scary. I'm trying it on a night football game this friday. That will be the real test. I'm taking my trusty XT as my backup though...something about the autofocusing does feel funny...:cry:

Another note too....shooting in AI Servo and selecting the extended ISO to get iso3200....it was not holding it for some reason. At least when I went through the metadata in my images, none read 3200....and I took quite a few on this setting just to test it out....weird....

It could be the 50mm f/1.8 that contributed to your problem. It is not the fastest focusing lens...I know, I am blessed with one!

After ordering the 40D, I'm still waiting for it to get here. While reading today I have come across some reviews that say the Autofocus on the 40D is worse than the 30D!!! Please post some action shots to put me back in a good mood and to regain faith in the camera :(

I played with both....40d AF is a lot better then the 30d.

Just came back from a football game. I had more keepers with the 40D than I ever did with the original 1D. I love this camera. It was amazing using the 300 2.8 + 1.4xtc and zooming in 10x on live view at people in the stands!!
