I voted for high ISO performance and resolution. You always crop birds, and there's never enough light with a small telephoto lens. Otherwise I'm taking pictures indoors on a tripod under controlled...

I bought one of these for macro and product work, then when we had to digitize baby photos for my brother's wedding it did just the trick for putting the camera directly overtop of the photos. With a...

Similar to how sensor cost goes up exponentially with size, lens cost goes up in the same way.
A small lens is relatively easy to polish and if a fatal mistake is made the cost incurred is low.
A...

I love looking at the industrial stuff. It puts the silly things consumers drool over into an entirely different perspective.

I've had two different experiences with this. On my T3 the sensor cleaning trick didn't do anything, so I mapped out where all the hot pixels were and sent it to canon, it came back producing nice...

This may be the quote you're thinking of?

At the same time, they also say that APS-C is moving to the...

The trouble is that I like the T3 as a travel camera, if anything happens to it I'm only out a few hundred dollars and (as long as I don't lose my camera more than once a year) I can replace it with...

I had a quick look at Wikipedia, according to that the size of your projected image is directly dependent on the distance of the lens from the sensor. So EF-M can get boosted lenses but I'm guessing...

(I'm sure many of you have read all this before, but being fresh to the hobby I had to get it off my chest.)

So I've been looking for a fast prime lens for my T3 for a while, I could just buy one...

Thanks Dave. After playing with the camera options on the 200mm f2 it's clearer what's going on.

I was confused because I thought most of the pictures were adjusted to get the same FOV regardless...

For example, the Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EX DC HSM and Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II are both APS-C lenses on APS-C cameras, yet the pictures are completely different... Why?
I can speculate, but it...

In my own (casual) testing the 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II is very decent in terms of sharpness (some reviews agree some not so much), CA isn't "as" controlled as on better lenses but it's still not...

I just read a review (on another forum) that mentioned the "touch to shoot" function is fast and accurate. There is no digital zoom though, so it's pretty much useless at macro.
