The Bottom Line An excellent midrange digital SLR, the 30D has given way to its even more excellent successor, the 40D. However, it remains a great choice if you can find it at a good price. 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. Great photo quality and excellent continuous-shooting performance are just two of the Canon EOS 40D's many attractions in the digital camera marketplace. Despite modest improvements in performance and a couple of new features, Nikon's D60 fails to impress and costs more than some competing models.
