Here are few photos from the web site (unfortunately not in English, but being from that area I could understand it well)

I apologize for using other person's photos without his/her permission, but this is just for illustrative purposes.

In my views, these are very sharp photos.

Oh...Oh...I started some interesting discussion here...We definitely need to wait for a few more reviews.

On Luminous Landscape, there is a test posted on EF 70-300 DO IS

lens. Overall good results. I am wondering when will Bob Atkinson

post his review, which would be more trusted. Thanks.

The test on new EF 28-3O0 mm Canon lens has been posted on Luminous

Landcape

http://www.luminous-landscape.com/new/index.shtml

 

The review of the other Canon new lens EF 70-300 DO IS is expected to

be posted before the end of the week. I am really looking forward to

see if it will meet my expectations.

The image sensor is cleaned with either a brush blower for lens cleaning (take off the brush part) or special "tools", referred to in many previous discussions on this site. The sensor is not self-cleaning. To be able to clean it, you have to follow the steps as indicated in the manual. I had no problem in understanding it what and when has to be done. I have not yet cleaned it (after 8 months) with anything else than a blower. Not very happy with the results, but still managed to get rid of some of the dust. If the dust particles are visible on the photo, I use PS to eliminate them completely. Hope this is helpful. Good luck.

Hello there,

There is really something unusual with the attached DO IS Lens photo. I compared the bokeh with the photos and links with submitted photos in the previous Bob Atkins posting on 70-300 DO IS shipping and Tom Applegate's photo. This one seem very strange. I believe it is the matter of camera, focus etc..

I have no reason to suspect that $1300 lens would behave so stragely.

I just checked Amazon.com @

and the price of above lens is set at US$ 1,299.95 with availabilty

as: "This item will be released on May 1, 2004. You may order it now

and we will ship it to you when it arrives.".

Here in Canada, few Toronto dealers are also accepting pre-orders at

Can$1,790-1,890, but no words on availability dates yet.

Thanks...

Does anyone know when Canon plans to ship the new EF 70-300 mm DO IS

lens to the dealers? Thanks!

Thank you.

Hi, is there a way to zoom 100% photo in PS, crop the part you like

and save it as it is (zoomed)? Stupid question?! Thanks.

Thanks...

I noticed the counter in dRebel Remote Capture counting backwards,

currently at 8922. Is there a limitation in dRebel as to the number

of shots before going to service, or can it go as long as it can

take. Can someone please advise? Thanks.

Great!!! I can paint my dRebel now! dRebel silver color was intended to show its difference in dSLRs. Black color or any other will not make it better. Silver works for me!

Sorry, I wanted to attach the photo to my response. Somehing like this picture you can hardly get on anything less than dRebel. F16, 8/10 shutter speed, 70 mmm, EF 24-70 f/2.8L USM lens

There are many factors that affect the picture quality, it is not only digital camera and lenses but also all other creative and programmed features as well as weather and time factors, not to forget the most important one, human factor. I have dRebel since October last year, and I am happy with it. It is better than the cameras you listed. Your lenses are also first class ones (at least the first three listed). 1D is perhaps slightly better, but in essence it is the same picture processor. Just keep shooting and improvement in pictures comes also with lessons learned and experience.

Thanks for all graet advices!

Hello guys,

I am currently looking into buying a slightly used EF 70-200 f/4 USM

from a friend for my dRebel. I am just curious, has anyone tried the

extenders with it? I am not sure if I should buy 1.4x or 2x, or

nothing at all? I have no money for more expensive lenses. Advice is

appreciated. Thank you.

Greg,

I decided I will go for 17-40 f/4, 28-70 f/2.8 and 70-200 f/4 with 1.4 xTC. I think this is as good as it gets for people who are not professional photographers and have limited budget, but want excellent, yet affordable lenses. Happy shooting.

How can we buy this invention?

Is it possible to use the EF28-135 IS lens with the two Canon TCs? I

wonde if anyone has tried and what are the results. Thanks!

Thanks Bob, I appreciate your respone and suggestions found in your article. Looks like 28-135 IS is a choice for everyday shooting, otherwise, I would be confined to carry the tripod all the time given the length and weight of 35-350 lens.

I have Digital Rebel with 17-40 f/4.0 L USM lens. I was thinking of

buying also a 35-350 f/3.5-5.6 L USM as a everyday and travel lens. I

know it is heavy, costly and bulky, but I was interested in hearing

about the qualities of the lens. Any comments and or suggestions in

this regard? Thank you.
