The Canon EOS 400D features 10.1 Megapixels of superior CMOS resolution and Canon's Integrated Cleaning System deliver the EOS hallmark of crisp, clean images, shot after shot.
Apart from the 400D's fantastic resolution, superb sensor and very large display (nearly twice the size of the EOS 350D), this camera impresses with the promise to keep the dust of the sensor. This is a remarkable innovation because every time you change the lens on a digital SLR body, dust has a good chance of ending up on the sensor and thereby degrading every image you subsequently take - until you have the sensor cleaned at the camera manufacturer. Well, you don't need to worry about sensor dust anymore with the Canon EOS 400D.
In essence, the Canon 400D is a full specification SLR that is compact and lightweight. It has a CMOS sensor (superior colour rendering) and more Megapixels than you are likely to require. And the in-built sensor cleaning mechanism is definitely worth having if you are changing lenses frequently; I wished my camera had one!
