Compatible Lenses are expensive. Had to buy adapter for using other canon lenses

It's nice to be able to use my other canon lenses on my Canon m200

Since I was a child I always had a camera and loved taking pictures. My first camera was a Kodak 35mm rectangle job. You know the one with the square one time use flash on top? I then had Vivitars and Ritchshot In May of 2000 I bought the Canon Rebel EOS for trips to China and Australia. I never fully got proper use of the camera because film does not show the errors of your settings. I then went on to buy several Nikon Cool Pix and a Canon Powershot S2. In December of 2009 my wife and I bought each other as a gift to ourselves this camera. Words do not describe the feeling of "arriving" as an artisitc photographer. Ous lives will never be the same.I must say I am biast against Nikon SLR's because my friends have them, and with the graduation to lenses and accessories I will be Canon 4 life.The functions of this camera are amazing. Eveything I struggled with for years in film, and inept point and shoot and powershot cameras came to an abrupt end by purchasing this one. The functions people struggle with, tones, lighting, sharpness are answered in a matter of a few test shots going through normal photography education (a quick reference guide in the owners manaual gives a brief overview that you can learn what you need to know). The book was a guide that in the 1st week and several hundred shots later were answered by photographs that made friends and family think they were fake or not done by this camera. I will be posting photos here on 3/19/10 of what I am trying to convey. The use of the picture style defines the photos that you take. Monochrome, Sepia, landscape with the right filters brings out the inner photographer you never knew you had. You will never, ever go back to the automatic settings after two weeks of using P, TV, AV, M, and A-Dep setting. The 12.1 Megapixles is great for framing the highest quality photos in 11x14 frames. I do not belive in the near future our walls we be able to hold our photos, we will have to keep switching them out.The only warning I have for buyers of this camera, or any SLR is that these are the cameras that take you to a new comfortable level and that comes with a price!!! you start off with the 18-55mm lense. That is not good enough. You must then get filters to bring out the landscapes and protraits you are taking. Then you move on to buying the 70-200mm or 70-300mm lenses, because you need the advance lenses to take action photos, or landscape photos. Then you need a wide angle lense, because taking pictures in the mountains or indoors, or of landscapes you get tired of backing up and not getting what you want in the shot. Then comes the hood for the wide angle, and the UV filter, and it goes on and on. Think of the camera as a foundation to advanced photography, however the lenses, the flash, and the filters, which will run you $700-$2000 it is what defines the pictures themselves. This camera is an awesome tool to capture your view of the world, the events in your life, and convey them in a professional manner. The price is fair and it will be a camera for years and years of professional photography.

fits my canon lenses perfectly - even bought a second

So the product does work it doesn’t seem to be the best quality. Also sometimes when changing lenses I have to take this off and put it back on or the Aperture will show 00 and I can’t focus. I may be returning I’m going to give it some more use

I own many Canon lenses, most of them L. I have used many more. This is the best Canon lens I have used so far. I owned the old 35L and I see many improvements.The lens is amazingly sharp across the whole frame wide open. Not much different than my best lenses at their best apertures. The contrast is top notch. Purple fringing and LoCa are gone. I have seen tests which would push the lens hard to get some traces of them but I have never seen them in my shots. The bokeh is much improved over the 35L which had the tendency to create ugly double line bokeh sometimes. The AF is perfect, no MA, but then my 35L focused very accurately as well. Flare resistance is excellent.I wish I could say something critical about it as well. Oh, it is a bit larger than I would expect a 35mm to be. But it is worth every inch.

I used these for a couple games now and I can say that if you sweat a lot they will fog. I use these with a one tigress lower mesh face mask and they leave a gap in-between the goggles and the mask. Also I was changing out the lenses and I cracked the lens once it came out so be carful changing the lenses. so if you are looking for good goggles to run with a balaclava then go for it!

What is not to love about this lens. I know Canon has come up with a newer version, and while latest and greatest is always tempting, there is something to be said for tried and true.This lens NEVER fails. Focus is fast and spot on. It never hunts for focus no matter what the lighting. If a blurry shot comes out of this lens it is due most likely to user error. I have a couple of "go-to" lenses and this is clearly one of them (for the curious, the 24-105 is another). I do a fair amount of theatre photography and this lens is always in my bag and the one I most often call on no matter what the light is like on stage. Time after time after time it produces a gorgeous result. Bright, sharp, well saturated and luxurious (almost creamy) images, unrivaled by most other lenses. I can't imagine what Canon has done in the Mark II version to improve upon this but I am sure they thought of something.Are there any knocks against this lens? Sure, I would love it if it weighed a great deal less, but these fantastic optics come at a price and that price is a bit of weight. It is worth every sore shoulder or aching forearm. I wasn't a bad photographer to begin with but this lens makes me that much better.BOTTOM LINE: If you get a chance to purchase this lens, DO NOT HESITATE. It does not know how to take anything but incredible images.
