I just bought a Canon 40D and would appreciate some suggestions on how to improve on the shots I took of the gator.

I went to the web site and looked at their ad.You might get a surprise when the camera comes. It will probably be the camera without a battery and lens. The manual focus lens that they sell does need an adaptor to mount on the camera . These are terrible lens. For around 100 dollars you can get a canon 50mm lens. You can buy third party batteries for 35.00.
I canceled the order and went to the site to make sure on my account that it indeed had been canceled. Thank you for your imput.

Did not know if I would be allowed to name the company but here it is More 4 Less Digital.com. SplashPrices.com lists several companies with the lowest prices and this company had the lowest price. Its says the Camera is $439.00 and with the promo code you get an extra 6% off your order which makes it 412.66 with free shipping. The description is accurate for a real Canon 7D and says nowhere that it is an import. However, when I went back on the site it says at the bottom of description,Polycarbonate Body. Japanese Body. Hope this will help others!!! I really feel stupid, glad I didn't brag to to many people about this deal!!!lol

I just had a bad experience with an on line company. A camera, the Canon 7D was listed for $412.66, through Monday, only. I looked at the description and it said that all Canon EF and EF-S lens were compatible. Did not say that is was an import, (not that I saw in the description) and that you would need to buy an extra attachment for $399!!! After I ordered, I was sent an e-mail to call them to comfirm my order. They told me it was an import and tried to sell me the attachment. When I told them no, they then proceeded to try to sell me another camera, etc. Bottom Line, and I knew this, YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!!!!
Just wanted to pass this along for anyone who might go to a site and think this is for real. I know there are great sales coming up in time for Christmas and sometimes it is hard to tell the good from the bad. Just wanted you to be aware. I just hope now that they don't charge my bank account, as I did leave my card information when I ordered this camera!!!! No matter how old you are, you live and learn!!!!!

I found a Canon EOS 10S and extra lens a couple months ago at a Goodwill for $5.98 and am having a great time at the beach trying to capture birds in flight. Since then I have added a 70-300mm lens and some other accessories. I have my film developed at CVS because they still use Kodak processing and I find it fun to go back an hour later and see what turned out!!!!! Good luck with your 35mm filming!!!!

Thank you FilmFanatic. What would be a good size lens for say birds in flight? I would love to get some close up shots of the birds at the beach and in flight. Is there any inexpensive lens that would be suitable for a non-professional?


As I say, any ef lenses will work. The problem I have recommending anything for you is I don't like the less expensive Canon zooms. So maybe something like a Sigma 70-300?

Will that lens fit my camera?



Any of the Sigma, Tamron or Tokina or any other third party lens will fit as long as you get the EF mount version
