just a quickie...I know the EOS 3 has 45 point AF but just how many ECF
points does it have? Which has a better (this is subjective!) ECF system
for sports like soccer, the elan II, the EOS 3, or maybe the elan 7e? And
why is one better than another? I have the elan IIe which I used last Fall

The II has the same optical design. The exterior was tweaked a little, like
the wider zoom ring. See:

Optically they're identical. The II version of the
lens has more aperture blades than the original 'I'
version, which makes for rounder, more pleasant out o

Hi Bob,
Did you notice the complaint
Could someone who has used EF prime wide angles as well as the 20-
35L, 17-35L, or EF 20-35 give me a comparison of their flare
characteristics? I currently use the EF 24/2.8 and 35/2.0 and shoot
them directly into the sun, often with grad ND filters. Even stopped
down, of course, there is so

Is there really an upgrade to the EF28-105 II or is the original EF28-105

I have the original 200/2.8L, and find that the hood is too small.
Even worse, it doesn't provide any protection against falls. This
makes me want to put a UV
All lenses have some shortcomings. While I am not thrilled with the
push/pull design of the 100-400 L IS zoom, if you adjust the friction ring
to the right setting it is easy to control and hold in place any focal
length setting. This does take a bit more time to get used to than turning
a ring.

Hi,
Thanks to all who responded. I really think I will order one from either
B&H or Adorama.
Will I lose anything (except a different warranty) by purchasing Grey? I
would also order either the 20mm f/2.8 or the 20-35 f/3.5-4.5 (still can't
decide...) at the same time, so combined saving by o

Hi
What is your experience and opinion, if single focal length
lenses are double or half the previous lens length in 35 - 200mm
range is it too big jumps (e.g. 50, 100, 200)? Or do you
prefer shorter jumps, e.g. 35, (50), 85, 135, (200).
Does anyone have experience with EF135/2L + 2x extender
