HI All A few weeks ago I posted a list of my gear (that will be published in my next book in Oct.) The chapter was posted as ONE long, eye-crossing paragraph. I could not figure out why, until now. I posted it though Safari on my Mac. Here it is posted through Firefox. Sorry for all those crossed eyes...

I have never used filters on my lenses unless they were specialty filters (star, soft focus, etc.) in the film days. I know that most digital images benefit from 'haze' sharpening. Anybody have any preferences on using filters on lenses and why or why not. I know we all say I would rather ruin...

I'm reading different reviews on lenses for my Nikon D70. Can someone explain what is meant by a lens with alot of speed. I'm a bit confused...I thought the camera produced the speed, not the lens. I like to take little league sports pictures and would like to invest in a zoom lens. I don't...

Hey all you Photographers... Need a little help with Lenses to use for my photography business. I mainly shoot weddings and just purchased a Canon 40D.

I shoot huge amount of pictures with 17-40L on 30D, and it is basicaly my walkaround lens in general. It is f/4, but it's WA, therefore intended for shooting at smaller apertures, so no problem here, plus it's superior in build and picture quality, also can be used not only on crop sensor cameras...

...and I swear I have searched/read tons of posts on the subject, but I still have a lens question. :-) I'm going to be purchasing the Rebel XTi w/ the 18-55mm lens that comes with it. I'm also getting the 50mm/1.8. I don't know what those numbers mean haha but after doing some research here...

Try using the Canon 85mm F1.8 lens. Wide open at F1.8 will give you the shallow depth of field you want to blur the background. Although this lens does not have an image stabalizer, it is small and compact and easy to hold with your Rebel.
