Canon EOS 40D Digital SLR Camera + lens kit - £788.49

Getting tired of that point and shoot camera? Want to live out the paparazzi life style, or just simply like amateur photography. Well, we have found a treat for you. This Canon EOS 40D Digital SLR Camera with a 17-85mm lens kit for £788.49 also comes with £60 cash back (until 12th January 2009). That's a good £10 cheaper than other retailers offering the same cash back!

This 10.1 megapixel beast will give you all the control you need. Add to that a 6.5 frames per second 'burst' rate, a new 9 sensor auto focus system, a 3inch screen and all-weather magnesium alloy casing, you'll be prepared for anything that hits you... or goes past you. Canon are specialists in the photography business and it's great to hear that they've worked on making better features on the camera, compared to the 30D predecessor. Even the shutter mechanism has been modified to create an almost silent sound - perfect for the nature photographers. You can even buy an optional Wi-Fi adaptor to wirelessly print and store your images, how cool is that?

Plenty of reviewers have given this camera 9/10. You may think that 10 megapixels is not enough but you can print these out at A3! We think the best feature is the larger size of the 40D. It's been built for the normal hands and can be grabbed comfortably. Check out the specs below if you're interested.
