The Bottom Line	Great photo quality and excellent continuous-shooting performance are just two of the Canon EOS 40D's many attractions in the digital camera marketplace.	Nikon scores big with the D80, its new 10-megapixel, sub-$1,000 dSLR.	It doesn't stand out for its feature set or design, but the Canon EOS Rebel XSi delivers on performance and photo quality.		Visibly better photo quality and slightly improved performance make the Nikon D300 a significant upgrade over the D200 and an excellent all-around choice.
