My dad was the one who got me into photography and gave me my first film body/collection of lenses. He's no longer into the hobby, but he started me off a path I'm still in love with after all these years...now I'm the one who's buying film for his camera and trying to get him back into it! -=Prints For Sale at PIXELS=-

I thought there would be more openness to my newest lens... Maybe you are all used to having the luxury of L lenses. I like it. Very heavy. I like how it is sharper than my previous EFS 17-85 I also upgraded to the 24-70 lens from a EF-S 17-85 recently deanp wrote in post #8935419 I have three young children so I sure hope I won't need three "bricks" to share with them in a few years!! Great lens though, I rented one a couple of years ago, enjoy. Well depending how old your kids are you may still have 10 years to save up for 3 bricks They asked me how well I understood theoretical physics. I said I had a theoretical degree in physics. They said welcome aboard! - Fallout New Vegas

Nov 01, 2009 18:05 | #28 I gave my dad his first L lens, my 70-200 F4. I bought it to use as a backup to my 2.8 IS but it sat untouched for months so I gave it to him to replace his bottom of the barrel gold ring canon zoom. Teddy Smith, SOC

But if you invest in some nice EF-S lens and then need to upgrade to a bigger/better camera...you're gonna be like...EF-S...FML. For that sole reason, I will never buy an EF-S lens. And plus, I'm addicted to the red L ring -Jon
