Most of the stuff I have seen about it has been good, with the exception of a lousy kit lens (something that Canon seems to be getting famous for!). The Sigma 17-70 DC Macro lens is supposedly a better replacement.

If you already have some decent lenses, it seems like a good upgrade path. And Canon has finally created an entry level camera with a decent LCD screen on the back!

There is a pretty thorough review here - www.dpreview.com/reviews/canoneos400d/

If you go to the last page of the review, Phil summarizes his pros and cons.

You might also read some of the posting on their forum to see what (if any) problems people are having.
