I've bouncing around between these two camera bodies....the 40D or Rebel XSI. I looked at all of the specs on each one, and they look pretty much the same.
What's the better body? Thanks! |

and the XSi is from the cheaper Rebel (xxxD in Europe) range. What led you to these two cameras? It is 3-4 years since they were released. In terms of image quality, there is little to choose between them. The 40D is bigger and heavier. This can be good or bad depending on your individual requirements. The 40D is faster. That wouldn't matter much to me, but it could be important for some sports or wildlife shooting. The 40D has an extra LCD display on top of the camera. This is convenient, but not a big deal either way. The XSi has slightly more resolution. 12 vs 10MP. Again, this is not something I would worry about. The biggest difference between the two is the viewfinder. I recently had a look through the viewfinder of my brothers 40D and I was quite surprised by how good it is compared to the pentamirror viewfinder in the Rebel/xxxD cameras. If the 40D is in good condition with a low shutter count, it is probably the better of the two. If it has a high shutter count, it is probably best avoided.
