Its heavy, has 5 focus points in a row covering about the middle third of the frame, is really really high FPS, and is built like a tank
If you need something indestructable then its great, if its not going to get drenched/beaten around, maybe its a bit too heavy
A 3 is a great compromise, especially if you get the booster as well. In really both are great cameras, you'll be happy with either (or both :bonk

It should be fine for both portraits and landscapes
I tend to use all of my bodies interchangebaly now I've got my 5d as they are all full frame. You wont get any crop factor advantages you may be used to with your 40d, but on the plus side your wideangle lenses will be wide
The only problem I have with the 1n is the AF points, 5 in a row is a bit limiting but as I tend to use MF for most things except animal shots it doesn't really matter
If I was given the chioce of the 1n or the 3 for the same money, I would chose a 3

i have a choice of 2, 1 at £200 with 6 months warranty, and the other is in a auction.
Can you tell me what the 1N HS means.

The 1 marks it as a 1 series, the professional canon range, n marks it as the second (i think) of the 1 series, after the Eos1 and before the Eos 1v (which is still being made).
HS means it has the PB E1, which takes AA batteries and ups the FPS to about 6 i think
£200 is about the going price I think, but it depends on condition
