Upgrading my camera i had a canon 400d actually it was the American rebel version but the same camera, Really fancy a Canon 40d as i like the hold and feel of it, anyone done the same transition and can tell me the benefits.
Thanks.

I went from a 400D to a 40D and couldn't believe the difference. The control system is totally diffeent and much more intuitive, more solid body and no need for a grip that I used to use with the 400D. You wll really notice the difference if you find a 40D instead. Add faster focus and more accurate focus on moving objects and it is an easy choice.

i went from a 450d to a 40d and the difference is enough
it's a better camera all round
i think a 50d would be a better choice though with it being slightly more up to date but to be honest apart from the pixel count ( which allows for tighter crops ) and the higher resolution screen there isn't a great deal of difference between em once there in your hand and taking photo's
400d to 7d here the difference is amazing, little more pricey than the 40d or 50d (was going to get the 50d) but I thought worth it in the long run
I went from the 400d to the 40d, still got the 40d, takes a bit of time to get used to but love it.

I went from a 350D to a 30D [which I still have] to a 50D & the difference is like chalk & cheese
If your thinking of buying used check the shutter actuations. I believe the 40D/50D are rated to 100,000 actuations before the shutter mechanism needs replacing [around £200-£250]
..and at 6.5 frames/sec it's very easy to rack up a LOT of wasted shots
Make sure your get a spare battery or two as well. I dunno about the 40D, but my 50D eats batteries when using Live View
