A bit of history,
My first SLR was a Canon A1 - just after college - enjoy the beast for
several years with a few Canon and offbrand lenses -- finally give the whole
outfit to by niece - many years ago

New Canon 300 D with kit lens.
I also shoot with the 70-300 lens.
The 70/300 lens was a little slow to focus when I used it on my regular
Rebel 2000 and now I find that it is a little bit slower on the 300. Also

I am in the process of buying a 20D, and am now looking at lens options. I
do not trust manufacturers to not suddenly drop any given standard they have
developed in favour of a 'new improved' standard. Out of their selection of
X-number of lenses, Canon only has 4 EF-S models.. ...

A brief recap:
I bought a S/H Canon EF 75-300 IS which had a duff AF motor.
I sent the lens to Canon RCC for a new USM motor, paying £120.00 for a fixed
price service..

The megapixel numbers game?
If they stopped at say 20 megapixels
for a DSLR of traditional 35 mm configuration,
could they then start to concentate on

It's odd that I bought 2, 20Ds last year and both needed to have the back
focus calibrated. One focused forward of the focus point and the other aft
of it. I thought because they had similar serial numbers they might have
been from a "made on monday" batch but recently I've come ...

I didn't get any answer to my post of yesterday (I must be too impatient)
and I dared it (Canon Speedlite 155A). Everything seems fine so far.
Still welcomes any feedback.

Hi, *istDs-ists, I've been wondering for a long time whether I can use my
very old Canon 155A flash with my very new *istDs...
I have sent a few emails to Pentax. I got one answer (from Pentax Canada,
Pentax USA) and it says:

Quickly done and I didn't push trying for the greatest stability.

Shot with a 100mm lens at 1/25s @ f/22.  Manually refocused between each
shot.

I understand that in addition to the special filter
to let through infrared for astronomical photos,
the Da also has a better LCD screen for more accurate
manual focusing.

I'm new at this.  Any advice on buying a D70 now versus waiting to buy a
D70s, probably for a few hundred more?

Is there more info available about the D200 and when it will become
available?
Same question for the D3x and D3 (full frame)
For the D100 I use an exposure correction setting of +0.7. Anybody has the

I haven't had the opportunity to try Canon's 70-300m DO IS USM lens. Some
time ago I read a users report that the lens is darn near as good as Canon's
70-300 f2.8 IS lens. Anyone have this lens and care to share info about it?

I have agonized over these 2 models for nearly a year. I have always been
partial to Nikon, resisted Windows and have only made the jump to digital
format from emulsion 35mm and 4x5 cameras 3 years ago...but the features on
the Canon 20d are quite impressive but i do not know ...
