why are you selling it, and more importantly why did you never use it?

I am selling it because I want/need a camera that will shoot in RAW format. I am currently seeking to buy a Canon 5D MKII as my ads on here will indicate.

I have only had this camera a few weeks. I bought it brand new ( have all the original paperwork, box, receipts, etc.,. I am a professional travel photographer and have not been anywhere since purchasing this camera so I haven't needed it.

I believe that unless you want to do a lot of post shooting editing and are well versed in Photoshop, this camera is the most versatile and flexible camera on the market today. It has a 28-840 OPTICAL zoom lens, rotating lcd screen, fully auto to fully manual and everything in betweenAND it shoots video in real 1080 HD !!! Its a GREAT camera !

Sorry I can't buy it. Three weeks ago I would have done so, but that's when I bought my own SX40. As you say, it is a great camera.

How about a nice Canon 50 1.8 II LNIB and some cash for your SX40 IS?

SO CLOSE. Actually what I am going to buy is a Canon 60D. If you had one of them we could definitely talk. Ohhhh it just dawned on me what you were offering. I was thinking of the Canon D50 camera body. God no, I don't want that lens. Could be the worst thing Canon EVER produced.

Whoa, Nellie.
The worst lens? I don't agree. Maybe not the best constructed lens, but certainly not a bad lens from a IQ standpoint. Nope. I feel "worst lens" is a bit over the top. I have produced award winning images with this lens. But anymore, I use a nice zoom instead...making it expendable. To each his own.
