EOS 40D - viewing angle of rear monitor screen

[Doug Kerr]

Greetings,

I have an EOS 20D, and will probably buy a 40D soon.

On the 20D, the vertical angle over which the rear LCD monitor can be viewed "well" is fairly limited, and in fact the appearance of the image (contrast, saturation, etc.) various continuously over all parts of the the range.

On the 40D, I understand that good viewing can be achieved over a larger range of viewing angle. Is it by any chance also true that over at least some modest part of that range, the appearance of the image remains fairly constant? That would be very worthwhile.

Thanks.

I just got the 40D and I think that the viewing angle of the rear LCD is much improved over the 20D. One gripe is that the colors (it was green for me) are extremely saturated and seem unreal.

Hi, Vivek,

Doug

Do you find that the appearance of the display is fairly constant as you change the angle at which you view it (over the workable range)?

Thanks.

Best regards,

Doug
