Which is Canon's best lens haha

 

I would have to go with the non-IS unfortunately. Just can't fork out the cash right now.


So what's the deal with the white lenses? I know there are some L-series out there that are black. Sorry if that's a noob question that's been asked 7890542 times already. I'm here to learn.

 

One of their best, at least. And I have it.

The IS is definitely worth it.

Look for a used one in good condition. I paid 900 for mine, with a BW 67mm UV filter.

The reason for the white lens body is to minimize internal temperatures of the lens when used in bright sunlight.

That it is. But i feel confortable handholding it, but the IS in low light is def worth it, but like Shane, no monies for it.

 

Oh and also, what is a good method for cleaning a lens? Our house is extremely dusty and some of it won't simply blow off, even with the canned-air-sprayer deals.

I can have a filter, and a lens cap on. And have the camera inside my bag. And the lenses STILL get dirty!

 

wow that is crazy.

 

Maybe if I get my XT sold soon.

Which btw, I guess this is a good time to let everyone know I'm selling a Canon Rebel XT with a few extras as follows (so spread the word)

Canon Rebel XT (black), has had about 5000 shutter cycles.
28-90mm Canon lens
Vertical battery grip
Sunpak CP
RC-1 shutter remote
Collapsible lens hood (unsure of brand, no longer have box)
"Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT Guide to Digital SLR Photography" by David D Busch

I paid about $450 for the camera and lens, brand new, and I'm asking for $350 for everything. I also have all the original boxes except for the package the hood came in.

 

Yup. I can go just about anywhere, and walk around carelessly without the lens cap on or anything, and it'll be fine. But when I get home, it seems to get dusty overnight.

 

 

The the EF/L-series are worth the money, even with a cropped sensor?

 

You don't need a full frame sensor to enjoy L glass.

 

Yes! The cropped sensor actually increases your focal length by 1.6x. So your 70-200mm is actually acting like a 112-320mm.

Definatley invest in the glass. L glass is best and I would save and invest the extra $$ for IS and in the case of the 70-200L I would go 2.8. Althoughit runs about 1600.00
