i have an EOS 650 35mm with two EF lenses , love the camera but lenses leave a lot to be desired but my question is........will any modern canon lenses be ok to use with said camera ? Thanks in advance.

If the lens says EF mount it will work. EF-S won't fit, but EF will. The lenses you have will also work with all Canon Digital SLRs.

Ken Rockwell's site is a good source of such info.
Unlike electronics, quality lenses have not become cheaper.

I have an old EF35-105 from a 630 35MM film camera that I use on a 40D. Works
fine but on a cropped camera it is lacking wide angle, It is old and slow, just like
its owner.

I have a Tokina 12-24. That gets wide, it starts to give the fish eye effect at around 15mm. I tried it on a full frame 5d and it was obvious that this lens was designed for a C size sensor. Search around you might find it in the 3 -400 dollar range.
The Canon 28 prime lens is QUITE nice - Mine is a 1987 version that came with a 630 at a garage sale.

Copy and paste this into your local craigslist, searching all for sale and wanted.
