Canon Lense basics

I have not bought a lense for my Canon EOS XT in probably ten years and since I have picked up the camera once again I am interested in acquiring a lense for it.  Please tell me how to tell which lenses will fit my old canon EOS XT.

I should have said, more or less, what you see!  Smiley Embarassed  But absolutely more than any 1.6x crop factor which was my intention.

 

Now my turn ....

 

"It appears that you have to go to a 7D (crop) or 5D3 (FF) to get "approximately 100%" coverage."

 

All my 1 series are 100% coverage.  Smiley Happy


C'mon, I knew that!! (I had looked up the 1DX, and I don't think any of the other 1D's are made anymore.)

OK, OK, I guess I should have said "or higher".  Smiley Tongue

 

One I hadn't looked up was the 70D; but I just did, and it doesn't have 100% coverage either.
