That made me aware that the review wasn't uploaded properly (some sections were missing) - however, I've reuploaded the review plus added several comments on L-lenses. I did in fact test out two L-lenses that I frequently use (EF 24-70 2.8 and 70-200 2.8 non-IS) on the 50D. What I'm trying to imply is the 50D has higher noise levels than the 40D. Of course both cameras produce the same quality (other than noise) when using the same lens, just that the 50D's higher resolution tends to make imperfections such as aberrations more apparent since images can be viewed at a much larger scale.

The 50D doesn't "require" better lenses -- it can take advantage of them, where the older 10 Mpix arrays just can't. The 50D gets no worse image than a 40D with the same lens. You should have mentioned the ability of the 50D to do AF micro adjustments for up to 20 of a user's lenses, too.
