Hi Mono ,

Yes ,  lenses for the 400 D and similar cameras are interchangeable  . 
Look for Lenses  compatible with the Canon EF-S and / or EF mount .
While  I  normally try to stick  to the same brand as the camera ,  there are  some  decent third-party (e.g., Tamron,  Sigma ) offerings out there .

In regard  to  your future "newer body" ,  if  that is a camera with the full-frame size sensor ,  you'll need to restrict your search  to  only EF mount lenses ,  since EF-S lenses  don't fit or work properly on full-frame Canons .
