I'm on the hunt for a used Rebel (probably a 300) and was hoping to find
a website that lists every older film lens that works 100% with it.  Or
almost 100% as some features I may not need.  Basically all I really

These lions got in a tiff over a buffalo carcass and suddenly it was
just a blur of fur once the female swatted the dominate male in the
