So if I baught a 20D with it's EFs lens could I still buy normal EF lenses later?

I understand an EF S lens won't fit on other cameras... but will EF S compatable cameras accept non S lenses?


Sorry I'm still trying to lean the world of slr before I plung in. :)

An EF lens can be used on all cameras supporting EF and EF-S lenses.

EF-S lenses can only be used on cameras supporting EF-S lenses which at present time only is 300D (since 20D has not been released yet :wink: )
