Canon EOS 40D DSLR SLR w/ Sigma DC 17-70 mm Lens rental

Description:

Welcome to the next generation of digital SLR photography-the Canon EOS 40D. The EOS 40D combines Canon's tremendous know-how in both the digital and photographic worlds, creating a camera that not only does everything one would expect of a traditional digital SLR, but one that incorporates staggering leaps forward in technological innovation. With new features like Canon's EOS Integrated Cleaning System, Live View Function, a more powerful DIGIC III Image Processor, plus a 10.1-megapixel CMOS sensor, a 3.0-inch LCD monitor and more, the EOS 40D elevates digital photography to new heights, enhancing the shooting experience, and delivering images one could only expect from a Canon.

The new Canon 40D, is a 10.1 Megapixel digital SLR. The next move up from the 30D. Wireless File Transmitter WFT-E3 which enables remotetransfer of images to remote FTP servers. In HTTP mode photographers are able to remote trigger the camera from over the Internet and initiate
