1. What are the EF-M lenses for? The MTF charts look OK but Will they fit on our DSLR FF or APS-C cameras?

2. What does APS-C stand for?

3. Why do the Canon FF cameras cost so much more than the APS-C's?

4.why would the new Rebel T6 have 24.2 mp when the new 7D MII only has 20.2mp? You pay more and it is a better camera! So why would the T6 have more than the 7D MII?!

5. Has anyone here tried the Canon EF 200-400mm 1:4L IS USM 1.4x? What do you think of it?

Why not start with Mr. Google. He knows many things and can point you towards many more...

A little basic research invested by yourself for things that are very easily found might be appreciated. For example, start with "what does APS-C stand for?" Followed by why FF cameras are more expensive. That information is freely available and you should be able to find it without wasting peoples' time. EF-M is in the same category, easily found.

For the harder questions, no problem, but please do a little work first yourself.

By the way, if you are asking these questions, then how come you were able to make this statement in another thread:

"I am sorry. I did not mean the 70D is low as a whole. I simply ment that it was lower than most APS-C cameras that Canon makes."

This feels a little bit like trolling. Be careful, the sun might rise and turn you to silicon, aka stone.

If you don't know how to use Google, OK, but if you do your statements and questions are not entirely consistent with one another....

And then there is the list of equipment in your sig:

AMS PHOTOGRAPHY
Equipment: Cameras: Canon 20D, Canon 7D, 1974 Minolta XE-7.
lenses I own: EF 70-200mm 1:2.8L II IS USM, EF-S 17-85mm 1:4.5-5.6 IS EF 75-300mm 1:4-5.6 USM, USM, EF 100mm macro 1:2.8 USM.

Lenses I want (if you have one you are selling please PM me): Canon EF 16-35mm 1:4L IS USM. Canon EF 100mm macro 1:2.8L IS USM. Canon EF 200-400mm 1:4L IS 1.4x USM.
Other: Tripod x1, speedlight flash, and much more. Visit me at: http://m.facebook.com/AMSPhoto1 or http://mywanderinglens.blogspot.com/?m=1


Something tells me that you are not being entirely straight forward. So please explain yourself, if indeed you can given the inconsistencies in your published information and questions. That includes following the links you provide.

Perhaps you really should go find a deep dark cave and hide from anything that has to do with light....

Oh, wait, that would be anything to do with photography wouldn't it?

Owners of $12000 lenses have done their homework, they don't need to discuss the relative merits of their choices with the unwashed masses..

Can this be true?? As well as asking pointless inane questions he's a bit lax in the personal hygiene department?

OKAY, so everyone dismiss the first 2 questions. I posted these questions so that I did not have to go through all the answers and try to find if I trust the one who wrote it or not, at least here I know who I trust and who I do not. after all I did say that thew where quick questions. I hate useing google! last time I did that I got all mixed up as far as to what the L means to Canon lenses. I still do not know if it means Luxury, Legacy, OR Loophole!!

it means the use of special glass which allows them to use fewer lens elements and cheaper manufacturing costs.
