Test images posted for Canon EOS 40D! By
Zig Weidelich (Thursday, September 13, 2007 - 14:00 EDT)We've been working with a production version of the new Canon EOS 40D digital SLR camera and have posted some of our standard test images from the Imaging-Resource.com lab.
Like most of Canon's SLRs in this semi-pro series, our early impression of the EOS 40D is that it's a very conservative upgrade, despite the new feature set that includes Live View and an upgraded AF system. Image quality does seem to be improved over the 10-megapixel sensor in the Rebel XTi, with slightly more evidence of noise suppression at higher ISOs.
As always, feel free to download the images and compare them with those of other cameras we've reviewed. You can also use the Comparometer to do it all in your browser. We'll be working on the 40D over the next couple of weeks, so check back for more test images and gallery shots.
To see the new images, visit the Canon EOS 40D hands-on preview and click on the Samples tab. -Shawn Barnett
