It’s a sheer delight that I am now a proud owner of a Canon EOS 400D! (Or the Canon Digital XTi for North America or Canon EOS Kiss Digital X for Japan)
I bought it last Tuesday, 6 February. Abe and Jayvee went with me to Hidalgo, which I really I appreciate apart from the fact that I wanted company, these two people own a Canon of their own, so, going to a place in Quiapo is not foreign for them (unlike me — funny cuz I studied in UST!)
Anyway, soon after I paid for it, a makeshift photo session was in order — right in the middle of busy Quiapo! They showed me how to put the lens (kit) on the body and left me alone to get acquainted with my new baby. However, street kids swarmed us, seemingly fascinated with the new toy themselves and asked us to have their photo taken (no choice really cuz they wouldn’t leave us in peace! LOL) So, I just played along with it, getting a feel of the light, the equipment and the subjects. Cool experience, I tell you!
Abe already posted his photos, now, it’s my turn.
Group hug! Hehehe.
Thanks to these two people for showing their support and excitement as I venture further into photography.
Purchases of the day:
- Canon EOS 400D Digital
- Canon EF-S 18-55 Kit
- Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II
- Ridata Compact Flash Card 1GB
And, of course, I won’t forget Rico. His excitement somehow matches mine that it’s actually funny and sweet. Thanks for making it happen for me! *hug*
Yea, people. The RAZR was just the beginning. Wait till you see what else is in store with as I continue my trek in problogging.

Am going to upgrade from my Lumix FZ7 to well, preferably, a Canon EOS40D. I haven’t done my research yet but what is the main diff between the EOS40D and the EOS400D, apart from the price? I saw the brochure of the EOS40D and there are a lot of good stuff it can do but you kinda have to pay for that. I want to know what I can and cannot live without. So far all the blogs and reviews of the EOS400D seem to be very positive and was a worthy buy for all of them. What’s your take? How did you decide to get the EOS400D? What were your major decision factors?
For the Canon 40D, check this.
As far as I know, the 400D is the best among its DSLR counterparts. Apart from handling and image quality, I like the 400D’s sensor cleaning system. I find the camera a great buy. Another reason why I chose Canon is because I’ve got friends whom I can talk to since they’re Canon users, too.
Hi!How are you? i accidentally visit you blogsite because I’m looking for sample shots of Canon EOS 400D and 350D. You shots are nice!
I’m planning to learn photography especially in weddings since my clients request on me alot.I hope you can help me, any suggestion. I will appreciate it alot
I need your feed back. how do you find Canon EOS 400D? do you have any idea the difference of Canon Eos 350d to 400d? How much is canon eos 400d when you bought it? Plus with the lens? Can i know what lens did you used?
Looking forward to hear from you soon. I will appreciate it alot.Email me please? Christine_palanca@yahoo.com
Thank you po!

hey! does anyone know how much this camera kit(including the EF-S 18-55mm lens) costs as of this month or this week maybe? I read the comments and it was about 33.5K last march 2008, i was just wondering if the price was raised…
To the Parodist: i think you bought the kit with the EF-S 18-55mm lens as a standard lens, i was just wondering if it had the auto focus and image stabilizer with it.
Please, i just need to know if the image stabilizer comes standard with the lens you bought along with this camera. i am planning to buy the same camera, with the same lens. Thank you.
