  • Well, there's only really a couple options. It could either be real motion blur or a serious lens defect. Just stick the lens on a tripod, manually focus using liveview, and shoot some static...
  • Well, the T3i has 50% more pixels, so that's an issue if you print big. The low-light performance of the 5d is definitely good, but not too much better than the t3i. You'll likely get 1 full-stop...
  • It's this ridiculous camera, not the EF-S 17-55. It's the only time the L lens designation has been used outside the full-frame SLR...
  • Before deciding on only EF lenses, make sure to check out your options for EF-S ultra-wides and normal-zooms. The good ones tend to be just as sharp as their EF counterparts, while being cheaper...
  • It's very difficult to manually focus on modern DSLRs, as the viewfinders are designed to be as bright as possible, which sacrifices manual focus accuracy. Check out some of the replacement...
  • EF, EF-S, and L lenses will all work just fine on your 60d. The only ones that won't work are FD (1980s and earlier) and EF-M (new mirrorless lenses).L lenses are all EF lenses (with 1 stupid...
  • I use the 5d Mark II and 24-105 and love them both. The 5dII in general has pretty poor autofocus unless you're using the center point. This obviously makes sports/wildlife/anything fast moving...
  • You're totally correct, and I apologize for not clarifying. I mean to say for the normal and wide-angle zooms. Some of the best lenses for APS-C in the prime and telephoto categories are EF lenses,...
  • I think Photonius meant that there is no equivalent EF lens that gets down to 10mm, which is correct (other than fisheyes). He was referring to mounting EF and EF-S lenses on APS-C cameras...
  • I would highly recommend buying EF-S lenses for your APS-C camera, regardless of whether you will be upgrading to FF in the future. If you buy your lenses used or refurbished, they almost...
  • You certainly can, but it's not very useful. You'll get horrible vignetting depending on the lens. Also, you will likely not be able to access the full range of focusing (macro -> infinity).Yes,...
  • You will love the 15-85. It's truly a great lens, as it's sharp throughout the frame through the entire zoom range. The EF 24-105 is also a good lens, but it's not designed for a crop sensor, so...
  • I totally agree with this assessment. I use my 28 f/1.8 for the same purposes, and it works 99% of the time. The build quality is great, the AF speed is remarkably fast, and the lens itself if...
  • Not everyone uses a crop sensor camera. For crop users, it makes much more sense to buy a refurbished 17-55 IS for the exact same price. However, for full-frame users, it makes a little more...
  • Hey brando,It unfortunately seems like you're still confused. There are no L or non-L macro at 200mm. The only focal length that has an L and non-L macro is 100mm. Canon makes both a 100mm f/2.8...
  • Commented on Moving! in the Fast Movement shot ( Car ) challenge

    Nice s2000! The red is a great color, second only to my Laguna Blue!

  • Usually, when walking around a new city taking photos, I just bring my 28 f/1.8 and my 50 f/1.4. I just put one in my coat pocket and use the other to shoot. They are both so light and compact...
