I wish that I could find lenses guide that allows me to know what lenses I can use with my 1d mark iv camera. Or an all around lenses for the 1d mark iv and rebel xs.

 

Your 1D Mark IV can use any EF lens. But it cannot use EF-S, RF, RF-S or EF-M lenses. They will physically not mount on your 1D Mark IV. Using Full Frame lenses on an APS-C camera will work. But you will find that you won't have ideal focal lengths.

What all round lenses do you recommend for my 1d mark iv 

 

Usually for a Full Frame camera the kit lens is either the 24-70mm or 24-105mm. The usual 3 lens lineup for Full Frame or APS-H is the 16-35mm, 24-70mm or 24-105mm and the 70-200mm.

The 1D Mark IV is an EF mount camera with an APS-H size sensor. This sensor has a 1.3 crop factor, so it is smaller than a full frame sensor like the 1Ds, 1D X, 5D or 6D has, but larger than the  1.6 crop factor in the 7D series, XXD series or Rebel series (in the US), or XXXD or XXXD series in Europe and Asia.

Any EF L series lens, non EF-S Canon branded lens or third party lens designated for full frame cameras will work.

Third party lenses identified as “Canon mount” will fit, but many model are only designed for APS-C crop sensor bodies; they will generally produce vignettes images since they won’t cover the full sensor size.

The 1D Mark “X” series of bodies were very popular. They were initially developed for sports/journalism photographers back when WiFi was scare. Photogs shot RAW on the CF card and JPEG on the SD cards. Runners would pick up the SD cards periodically, or after a big game play, for example, so images could quickly be downloaded to a computer and uploaded on line.

Hello, welcome to the forum.  Canon USA released a series of videos a few years ago about the different lens types.  For Canon branded lenses, you would want Canon “EF” lenses, not “EF-S”.
