Good articles, but I guess I need some time to finish them all. Could you please recommand some lens might be good for Canon 40D? Thanks -happyfisher(happyfisher); 2008-4-19 (#4404099@0)

I use my camera to shoot at my all kinds of trips, I guess, except shoot for macro/bugs. That persons's collection is really big, but seems like his camera is not Canon 40D. I wish I have enough money to collect what I like. -happyfisher(happyfisher); 2008-4-21 (#4406885@0)

$2500 for 40D and lens is perfect balanced :50% money on body, 50% on lens. if you dont care 50:50 percentage. then here are some alternatives -mt123(快乐的阿土仔); 2008-4-21 {1024} (#4407045@0)
some people gave me the following advice when i was thinking to buy DSLR:

more weight on Camera:
1) nikon d300+18-200 VR (in previous thread mentioned: costco.com has $2100 for total) you can buy a flash or filters with the money left.
2) canon 5D+50 1.8 around $2500
pros: you get the best camera you can
cons: digital body will become obsolete quick just like your computer. so make sure you are really committed to the photography .

more weight on lens:
3) canon used 20D/xti or new XT/350D $389 +50 1.8 $86 ( you have more than $2000 left for future lens purchase , like dreamy 85 1.2L)
4) Nikon D40 kit $499 , (you have $2000 left on future lens buy.)
pros: risk is small, after 6 months, if you still love take photos, based on your skill level that time, then you know which camera/lens/lighting equipments you really need.
cons: feel not good when comparing with others ..

i am doing option 3 now. and really miss option 4.(spot metering, Auto iso, 1/500 flash sync , much better handling).
honestly, I considered to buy NIKON D300 before, but unforunately, I didn't find it in futureshop or bestbuy, I also don't like to buy it on line, so i consider to buy Canon 40D. -happyfisher(happyfisher); 2008-4-22 {97} (#4408141@0)
Probably I will at the beginning just buy 40d with 17-85 lens, later on add some more lens to it.

偶不是高手，不过如果我现在有 $2500（假设你是说总共$2500，不是单镜头 $2500），偶会 -xmlhttprequest(build5381); 2008-4-21 {345} (#4407188@0)
想办法从美国买。

买一个 40D，一个 580EX II，一个 Canon EF 24-105mm f/4 L IS，再加 UV 和偏振镜。
如果以后可能追加投资买长焦，偶会买一个 40D，一个 580EX II，一个 Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L，再加 UV 和偏振镜。

纸上谈兵而已。两个镜头都没用过。正在 YY 中。

如果你实在决定不了，花 80 美金买个 50mm 1.8，拍到 500 或 1000 张，你就知道想要什么了。
your choice is also a nice choice to consider. I am sure I will think about it, to get more lens later on. -happyfisher(happyfisher); 2008-4-22 (#4408144@0)

28-135 not wide enough, designed for old film cameras, go get 17-85, if budget allowed, get the 17-55. -omino(sleepy cat); 2008-4-20 (#4404992@0)

Thanks, sleepy cat. but there is one info about 17-85 lens said: "The lens has a tendency to collect dust into the inner chamber. " do you think it matters? thanks -happyfisher(happyfisher); 2008-4-20 (#4405298@0)

Yes, dust gets in, but not an issue for image quality. Actually, distortion and chromatic aberration @17mm is the biggest problem for this lens. Better to get it as a kit lens. -omino(sleepy cat); 2008-4-20 (#4405562@0)

what you mean by the "as a kit lens"? you think buy 17mm lens itself is not good, instead, I should by 17-85mm lens? thanks -happyfisher(happyfisher); 2008-4-21 (#4406877@0)

Don't buy 17-85 alone, its quality does not deserve your $545+tax, instead, buy it as a kit lens along with the 40D, in this way, it only cost you ~$300, it's a nice walk-around lens with IS and fast focusing. Did I express myself clear? Check here. -omino(sleepy cat); 2008-4-21 (#4406934@0)

Thanks for u patient response, you made yourself very clear now. By the way, do u think 17-85 lens is " variation reduced" when I used in the car running on the rough road? -happyfisher(happyfisher); 2008-4-22 (#4408130@0)

Shooting in a moving car? The vibration is out of the range that IS can correct. -omino(sleepy cat); 2008-4-22 (#4408474@0)

Thanks, good to know all I need to know. -happyfisher(happyfisher); 2008-4-22 (#4408504@0)

40D 是不是国内的 400D ? -icanbe(一年); 2008-4-21 (#4407075@0)

40D在这里和在国内名称都是一样的。国内的400D在这里叫XTi, 450D这里叫XSi -njt(不远万里); 2008-4-21 (#4407379@0)

28-135这个镜头还可以，光线好的时候表现不错。防抖技术是老一代的，光圈不是恒定的，论成像质量比不上24-105L F4，不过，这个镜头毕竟价格便宜。 -njt(不远万里); 2008-4-21 (#4407399@0)

I like to buy lens in the store such as futureshop or best buy, but I can not find 24-105 in the store, and lens choices in store is so less, ai....by the way, how do you think the other lens of canon "防抖技术", thanks -happyfisher(happyfisher); 2008-4-22 (#4408147@0)

IS(Image Stabilizer) has 3 generations. The newer the better. You can find this lens from Bestbuy, Markham store has it in stock -njt(不远万里); 2008-4-22 (#4408153@0)

Thanks, I will check it. -happyfisher(happyfisher); 2008-4-22 (#4408202@0)

Just bought a Canon 40D. Really nice camera. I used my old lense which is 28-300mm. But remember if you buy 28-135, it will be equal 44-350 (times 1.6X) of film EOS so you lose wide-angle. With $2500, buy one 17-85mm and one 70-200mm. -woweishuikuang(大灰狼); 2008-4-25 (#4417249@0)
lots of frauds and tricks in ebay stores to Canada Consumers, be sure dont use UPS but USPS shipping, the best way is shippping to friends in States, then shiping to you in gift name, as such, you could save 14% tax!! -happylw(万水千山); 2008-4-28 (#4420261@0)

还有我的建议:40D+24-105L. $ 2500够了! -happylw(万水千山); 2008-4-28 (#4420265@0)
