Buying a Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II SLR Lens...Help, quick simple question

[staci_albright]

<p>Okay so those that I have already talked to know that I am trying to find a Canon EF-S 18-55mm IS SLR Zoom Lens. Thank you all for your help, I know I probably made you want to pull your hair out. One last quick question about this lens though. Im planning on buying one today. I was going to purchase one from <a href="http://www.keh.com">www.keh.com</a> but their price went up..so now I dont have enough for it. I set a limit of $100 for me to buy this lens, that includes shipping and all. So if you dont mind refering and directing me to the exact page of this lens I am looking for and the price +shipping is $100 or less. that would be great. The only other site I have looked at was amazon. Which I believe this is one I was directed to but I am hesitant to pay for it until I know 100% it will mount streight onto my Canon EOS Rebel 300d. Here is the link.. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B000V5K3FG/ref=sr_1_1_olp/?s=electronics">http://www.amazon.com/gp/offerlisting/B000V5K3FG/ref=sr_1_1_olp/?s=electronics</a> <br>

Thank you all so much and I am sorry for being such a bother, but I truley thank you all</p>

<p>all EF and EF-S lenses will fit your 300D, no worries there.</p>

<p>You can search Amazon as well as me but I found just one lens within your budget 2/h.<br>

Others will have to tell you if it suits your camera.</p>

<p>Alternatively, Adorama.com has a used 18-55 IS for $88 shipped. I don't know how their ratings compare to KEH though.</p>

<p>Don't know if I can get a link to the specific lens to work: <a href="http://www.adorama.com/US%20%20%20%20521020.html">link</a></p>

<p>What is available differs from moment to moment as items are sold.</p>

<p>When buying on the Amazon site, be aware that Amazon can be a little, well, careless about policing their "associates". These are independent vendors, not Amazon itself. Many protections may not apply.<br /> On Amazon or eBay, <strong><em>never</em></strong> buy from somebody with only 1 or even <strong>no</strong> competed sales -- that's just asking for trouble.</p>

<p>Just now, when I looked at Amazon, the two cheapest used vendors were both newbies. The third vendor at $99 or so looked better. Rob's link, if it is still available, does seem to be Amazon itself.</p>

<p>The cheapest Ive seen is the Adorma.com total it is $87.60.<br>

<a href="http://www.adorama.com/US%20%20%20%20521020.html?utm_term=Other&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=Other&utm_source=cj_5157839">http://www.adorama.com/US%20%20%20%20521020.html?utm_term=Other&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=Other&utm_source=cj_5157839</a> <br>

so is this a good purchase? This will definatley attach directly to the body of my camera with no aditional parts or anything right?</p>

<p>Yes, it will mount. Several have mentioned that EF and EF-S lenses will mount on your camera. Look for those letters. Canon has one mount. Most any new or recent lens will mount.</p>

<p>Did you get the one from Adorama? That was a good deal for whoever got it.</p>

<p>I see them locally on Craig's List for under $100. I bought one for $80.</p>
