I'm currently trying to build my lens collection, and would love some advice on the "necessities" for the types of photography I plan to do. I currently have: 1. Canon SL12. Canon T3i ..and I'm looking at either getting an EOS 60D or waiting til la...
Use the above lens with a Canon T3i, and Close-up 500D for macro photography. I wanted to know if I can use the "Canon Macro Ring Lite MR-14EX is mounted when the zoom lens 500D close-up.And if so have to buy adapter or serial sequence assembly of th...
I just ordered the below Tripod Mounting Ring for my 70-200 f/4 L Non-IS lens. What do you think of this mounting ring? Anyone have experience with both this ring and the one Canon makes? What is the difference? For one third the price I couldn't pas...
If I bought a new lens to replace the original lens that comes with the t3, will it then autofocus? Or is autofocus not related to the lens, but to the camera? I know t3i doesn't support autofoucs but I was just wondering if it could be fixed with a...
I have a 70d and would like to get much more from close up wide angular shooting, without breaking the bank.Are there alternatives to a canon 10-22mm or 12-24 ( not sure if my specs are correct, no doubt someone will put me straight!) , sigma...tokin...
Hey, So I just purchased the 70-200 f/4 L series non-IS lens and instead of being pure white it is more greyish/tanish color. Is this normal. Most images I see have it as pure white. I purchased it from Best Buy. Thanks,
How slow is 85 f/1.2 AF? Slower than, say, the EF 50mm f/1.8? I have been curious about this 85mm lens. You hear so much good about the IQ but they say the AF is quite slow. I realize it sounds crazy to mention those two lenses in the same breath, bu...
Iv'e seen many posts on the internet regarding effect of filters on the Canon 100-400 L zoom.Will a Canon clear protector filter really degrade my lens? Thanks

I just got the new 16-35 IS lens from fedex...ordered direct from Canon...anyone else got this yet? I just did some prelim tests on a brick wall and some landscapes and I am not that thrilled with it. It is definitely better at the edges and corners...
Found this lens at a really good price. Seller says the "film is loose" (arrows on the pic show where). Seller states lens still works fine. Thoughts? Advice? Thx!
Looking for a lens that will take sharp flower, bug photography, but also sharp portrait pictures. Thank you!
I have read conflicting opinions on whether or not it is ok to carry a 70-200 f2.8 ISII on a 6D or a 5D MKIII using the standard camera strap instead of supporting the lens first. Will this cause undo stress on the lens mount with either or both of t...
Hi folks, So first ever post and relative newbie to the world of photography. My issue is this. Currently using a 6D and own the following glass: 70-300 f4-5.6, 24-105 L Kit lens, and 85 1.8. So i feel like I'm covered for most of my type of shooting...
