Usually its 18mo for xxD bodies but the 50D was released at the 12mo mark. You can visit the Canon Museum for more detailed info.

I assume that question was directed at me? If so, to answer it, the 300/4IS+1.4x TC (420/5.6) is a slower lens than the 100-400 when it comes to AF and is also outperpermed by the 100-400's IQ...
on it's own...maybe, but not at 420mm's.
In situations where a tripod is not possible such as public places where a no tripod law is implemented (i.e. Grand central Station)
Wedding/event photography.
In situations where you do not want...
Try this...
RAW, White Balance: AWB, Colorspace: sRGB (or Adobe RGB) and Picture Style: Standard. If your white balance seems off use DPP/lightrooom etc to correct it. You may also want to check...
There is no way for anyone on here to tell if you got a lemon or not. You may want to read this, it may explain what you're seeing. Also, try printing a few test images out at say 8x10 or 11x14.
Aside from it being the size of a garbage can it would weigh a ton.Don't get me wrong, in theory its a nice idea--in reality completely infeasible.
As for a 24-70IS, it's not a stretch by any...
Actually I meant to say MKIII...there shouldnt be any confusion as to which body it pertains to in my post. The other I referred to as the 1DsMKIII. If that confused you, I apologize. The longer...
That is their marketing strategy--its the same reason they did not update the 5DII's AF system. As for the MKIII I just recently picked mine up and have been shooting around with it for a bit, no...
I voted MKIII but I also use a 5D and a couple 40D's.
For wedding and event photography there is no doubt f/2.8 is the way to go if your shooting style revolves around low light without flash. IMO sell off your 17-40 and 24-105 and pick up a Tokina...
If you're not getting an error message (i.e. err99 etc) it sounds like the battery or the contacts. Try giving them a cleaning and make sure the battery has a full charge. If that doesn't work give...
Unless you're shooting on with a 1-series and a weather sealed lens you may want to consider skipping the Canon 1.4x's all together and go with a Tamron or Kenko pro 1.4x--virtually identical IQ in a...
Option 1
Tamron 17-50/2.8 - $430
Canon 70-200/2.8 - $1150.00
Sigma 30/1.4/Canon 85/1.8/Canon 50/1.4 - $380/350/325
Kenko Tubes - $100
YOU DO NOT NEED AN L LENS TO MAKE A GOOD INVESTMENT LET ALONE GOOD PHOTOGRAPHS. Sorry, had to get that out of the way. If you are not planning on going FF I'd pick up the EF-S 17-55 over the
24-70...
In the case of the 100-400 no one really knows if there was a 'silent fix' or not but it seems that there is a lot more praise/a lot less complaints of the lens now than there was pre 2007. It wasn't...
This outa help.
Larry, I believe you may be referring to the 5DII which is the only current Canon DSLR with native video capture available. The 5D 'classic', which this thread is based upon, does not offer this...
It's not the number of pixels that counts--its the quality of each pixel that does. The 50D has a much higher pixel density than the 5D, making it a great camera to shoot sports and wildlife with...
Hey, Jessica. I like these images--but I feel a lot of them are a bit cramped--don't be afraid to back out a bit ;) #1 is a good example of what I mean. The action is way too tight making the scene...
Realistically?
24-70/2.8 IS [$1500]
35-70/2 (IS optional) [$1600]
135/2 IS (or f/1.8, IS optional) [$1200]
200-400/4 IS [$5000]
Yes the Tamron is white...but I fail to see what that has to do with the TC's performance--unless of course you joke.
Not neccessarily. Current IS systems are very light, as are lens barrel materials--not to mention new lens designs and special elements. With the introduction of Sony/Ziess and Nikon 24-70 variants...
I found the 24-70 (and all of my 1.4-2.8 lenses) very acceptable using wide open. They are not as sharp as when stopped down a few stops, but plenty sharp. Saying that he will need to use the 24-70...
