  • Photo Review Australia, December 2006 "Canon listened to its customers and researched the market thoroughly when designing the EOS 400D. It's quite a different beast from the successful EOS 350D and offers significant improvements on its predecessor, although it retains the 350D's compact size and light weight."

    Camera Controls

    "Designed to be easy for novice SLR photographers to use, the 400D also offers the creative freedom and controls serious photographers demand."

    Performance

    "Shooting tests showed the EOS 400D to be a fine performer and this was backed up by Imatest testing, which revealed some excellent results."

    "Low-light performance was also impressive with little visible noise up to ISO 800 and well-contained noise at ISO 1600. Colour reproduction in night shots was also very accurate."
