    choice of tele lens

    I just came back from Alaska 4 months ago. I faced the same dilemma like you.....eventually I settled for a 70-200 f2.8L lens with a 1.4x extender. I realized that you need as long a lens as possible when shooting wildlife in Denali National Park. I was quite happy with my setup. Don't bother...

    Alaska Trip - Need advice on 1.4x or 2x teleconverter

    Hi Guys! Thanks for your comments! Well I probably can't buy a new lens.....if I do so my wife will kill me and I probably will be in the dog house for a long long time....... We will be viewing the bears from Denali National Park. Chances are the bears will be quite a distance away......so...

    Alaska Trip - Need advice on 1.4x or 2x teleconverter

    Thanks guys for your opinions. Trouble is I already have the 70-200 f2.8, so getting a new lens is out for me...... I'm just afraid that the reach on the 1.4x may not be sufficient. If that's the case, would it be better to go for the 2x extender despite the drawback in its image quality, or...

    Alaska Trip - Need advice on 1.4x or 2x teleconverter

    Hi I will be going to Alaska. Hopefully will be able to photograph some bears. I currently have a 70-200L f2.8 lens and would like to add either a 1.4x or 2x canon teleconverter. Can anyone advice which is a better option? How's the quality of the 2x converter? Thanks Huck Beng

    Looking for a travel lens for 350D

    I am currently using the 30D with 17-85 IS USM lens. So far images are sharp and colors vibrant. The IS really helps especially for night shots where there is no time to set up a tripod. Moreover the 35 mm extra reach allows me to zoom in when need be......should be adequate for most purposes

    Dark images really dark

    Hi all I have just purchased a 30D with a 17-85 lens. I have taken quite a few shots but have noticed that the "black" of the camera image is really black. For example, when I take a night short photo, the black portions are completely dark. Even in bright daylight, the portions under shadow...
