Customer Review: Canon 200mm f/2.8 L lens
This lens is excellent optically. Outstanding performance when used wide open at f/2.8. It is a little on the heavy side weight wise though.
Customer Review: The perfect lens to start you with L Primes
Interestingly, the price has crept up a bit on this lens in the last few months. It's value must be becoming more apparent to more folks. Nice to have bought before it went up instead of vice versa. Nevertheless, this is the most reasonably priced of the Canon L Primes & is a perfect one to start out with, if you don't own any yet. This lens is tack sharp, has very true, very vibrant color and high contrast. In all these areas, it is probably just shy of the 135mm, 85mm and 50mm lenses, but this is a discerning eye speaking, and these are subtle (although modestly notable differences). The difference between this and an ordinary Canon lens will be much greater. As a side note - if you already own either or both the teleconverters (1.4x and 2x), they work very well with this lens. It maintains AF with both, due to it's speed. And this is a small light lens, considering the focal length. With a 2x it becomes a 400mm f/5.6, yet it is much lighter, narrower, and more portable than any comparable variation (the 100-400mm L, or any of the 400mm L primes, of which there are two, plus a non-L DO prime that looks like an L, and might fool you). If you intend to shoot all the way out at 400mm mostly, this is probably the cheapest method, and the quality loss is less with the 2x on this lens than with many/most others. Whatever your choice, this is probably the most reasonable L value on the market and is a very smart buy if you wish to see what all the fuss is about. And Yes, the fuss is warranted. L's are that good.

Customer Review: It's phenomenal - except I didn't like the factory settings
The first two weekends with this camera (I'm on my 5th weekend now) yielded garbage photos and I needed help from the 1D3 forum people at DPReview. Look up "1D3 can't focus on a bug's nose" for the discussion. I was shooting bugs and couldn't get clear sharp pictures. My other camera is a 5D which shot great closeups of bugs with my EF 300 F/2.8 and EF 500 F/4 (but with a very high focus failure rate). It was finally decided that I needed to locate the custom function to turn off the assist points on the center focus sensor. That made all the difference. Also, even before that, just plain old normal pictures produced truly awful jpegs. When I reset jpeg compression to level 10 (instead of 8) that improved picture quality a great deal. Finally, I suspected level 4 sharpening (Landscape picture style) was not very sharp, so I shot a church bell tower from about 650 yards away using my 500mm and my 5D and this 1D3. Results: the 5D landscape style (factory settings) out-shot the 1D3 landscape style (factory settings), but my custom settings of 5 for sharpening, +1 for contrast, beat the 5D and yielded an incredible picture with detail that the 5D had only hinted at, and the 1D3 Landscape setting didn't reveal at all. Amazing what a difference a small adjustment can make. Now it is a fabulous camera and takes fabulous jpegs. Focus is very fast, much faster than the 5D, and much more accurate. Which is all I was hoping for. I now have a much higher percentage of well focused, beautifully detailed images that don't need any raw processing to make them look good (and I now delete plenty of pictures for composition reasons alone). If you shoot jpegs and hate messing with raw files, and you have a 5D or other high end camera that takes great shots, better do a comparison and set up the 1D3 accordingly. Then you'll have a very remarkable camera in the 1D3. A final note, if you want sharp pictures of bugs that don't stay put, or birds in flight, I recommend using the f/2.8 lenses over the f/4 because the auto focus sensors need it (I shoot most of my pictures in bright sunlight at f/7.1, but it's the auto focus that needs the extra light from an f/2.8 lens, not the depth of field that needs a big aperture). I haven't tried live view (I'm always outside and really don't care about live view anyway).
Customer Review: Essential tool for a professional photographer.
Purchased the Mark III in September 2007. Over one year later this camera still continues to amaze me! The controls are laid out perfectly and the camera feels like it's just the right size in my hands. Others have complained about the price, but believe me, you get what you pay for!! I purchased this camera to take professional portraits, weddings special events. This camera was an upgrade from the Canon 20d and 30d cameras I previously owned. Some of my favorite features are the auto - ISO feature. This mode allows you to set the camera in shutter or aperture priority, and if the camera cannot compensate for the exposure, it automatically increases the ISO. Great feature that allows the photographer more creative control of the picture while getting that perfect shot every time. Another nice feature is the live view shooting. This mode allows you to take long pictures, or pictures in awkward angles without requirig you to look into the viewfinder. You still have to manually focus. Another feature I like is the ability for the camera to record on multiple media targets. You can set the camera up to record raw on one card and jpeg on another. Or, you can set the camera up to jump to the other card when one is full. This is very convenient for me since I shoot in RAW. Another feature is the limits, configuration, and file handling settings. You can set the minimum and maximum ISO, shutter, aperture settings, fast shutter speed, slow shutter speed, and the camera will compensate within your set parameters and deliver results. One last feature worth noting is the microadjustment. This camera allows you to micro adjust for each of your lenses. This is especially useful if you have a front focusing lens that appears to be just a little off. You can adjust the camera so when you attach that lens, the camera automatically adjusts for that particular lens. Sure, this camera costs a few dollars more, but the payback in the pictures is nothing short of amazing.. This is a TRUE professional camera and as such requires the photographer to have a significant knowledge of photography. The battery life is phenomenal! Not only does the camera provide you with a battery meter, it has a menu setting that actually tells you what percentage of battery life you have left and the number of shutter actuations since the last charge. I routinely manage over 2000 (and once over 3000) actuations on a single charge. This is something that NO other digital camera can do! Significant upgrade over the 1dMarkII series cameras where the battery was larger, heavier, and lasted for at most 700 actuations. I thought of purchasing a backup battery, but haven't brought myself to do so because of the longevity of this battery. This camera has been a very important compliment to my existing L series lenses. Overall, I would recommend this camera for the professional photographer that is SERIOUS about the business of photography and needs proven professional equipment to deliver results to the customer. I have been considering purchasing a second Mark III as a backup to the one I own. My 5d is currently my backup camera (great, but not at the same level as the EOS-1 series).

Customer Review: great lens....flawed user.
i have never done macro before and started photography a month back....i was on my 50mm/1.8 350d... so...i wanted to try macro and bought this lens based on he awesome reviews. heres my thuts: 1) sharp. tho ppl say its so sharp, i expected more than any lens cud prolly do... 2) u need a tripod...or a lot of light...the f/2.8 is only at infinity (i didn't know this before reading the manual tho i shud have known) 3) because the focus is literally a millimeter or so at 1:1, my 350d's veiwfinder isn't large enough for me to nail the focus...my pics always came out focusing slightly off the mark(and when i mean real slightly but noticeable without zoom). of course, its my inexperience. 4) beginners advice : this lens is not like a 50mm lens in ease of use so if u dont have patience and dont want to learn to work around this (awesome) lens, u shud try the 60mm or 50mm...cuz they are ligther and prolly dont shake so much and there more stable/easier to use...not sure here tho.. all in all, i love this lens but it sure requires technique/patience...to get it dead right and explore its full potential i.e.
Customer Review: A nice buy
This is a good lens for portraits as well as macros. I managed to get mine fairly cheaply in the circuit city closeout(for about $320). It gives a good working space which I've liked the most of all my lenses- neither too close nor too far. Also, be aware that this is not a wide angle lens, so if your preference is landscaping or that sort, then this is not for you. The only issue I have found is that the lens is heavy. My forearms had some strain the first day I used it, but now I'm used to it. Overall, it is an excellent buy if you are interested in Macros. The quality of the glass is top notch. Remember to check out circuit city to see if they have it in stock..Its a great deal there right now!

Customer Review: High Range of Functions, Great Cost
As a complete newcomer to the DSLR world, I wasn't sure which camera to purchase to explore the world of photography. I thought about the XSi...the features sounded impressive, especially the Megapixels. But a friend of mine said that after about 5MP, the numbers don't really matter unless you're planning on printing poster-size photos (which few of us would actually do). The 8MP images of this camera are gorgeous and crystal clear--you'd never miss having a 12MP camera. All it would do is make the file sizes HUGE, and you'll have to get an external hard drive to save your photos. (Number of MPs is really ploy to get consumers to buy a more expensive model) The features on this unit are vast enough for an advanced photographer but has enough automatic features on it that it will ease you into the world of photography. I highly recommend this camera!
Customer Review: Best DSLR I have ever used
I would have rated it 6 out of 5, but they didnt give me any option to do that. Absolutely amazing DSLR. Its good for all: - Beginners who have never even used a DSLR before. - Professionals who love to shoot the mother nature. - Mums/Dads who want to capture the best moments of their parenthood. Infact I bought it when my son was born to make sure I capture his early years using the best available camera, and did it paid off or wat..??.. The only minus point that I can think of right now is that "like any other DSLR/SLR" its bulky..so you would have to get used to the fact that you cant carry it like any point2shoot camera in your pocket.. you would need proper bag for carrying this. - Great battery Life - Amazing Clarity - Great speed - Great Flash for night mode - Good lense - Great photography otions/modes. Great product!!

Customer Review: Great lens for reasonable price
This lens performs at top quality levels in terms of contrast, resolution, and color rendition. It is a full-frame fisheye design, i.e., on a 24x36mm sensor (or film) the diagonal angle of view is 180 degrees, and the full frame area is covered (not a "circular fisheye"). Autofocus is a bit "buzzy" - it's not an ultrasonic motor type - but quick and accurate. For landscape work this wouldn't be an issue anyway, but good AF is very useful when making use of the possibilities for extreme close perspective portraits of animals, etc. The build quality is not quite like the Canon L series lenses, but is generally solid and confidence inspiring. The lens cap is important, since the convex front element is protected only by the petal shaped built-in hood, and a front filter cannot be used. I consider this lens well worth its price, and if you understand the optical workings of a fisheye (tangential straight lines become curved as part of the design) you will not be disappointed.
Customer Review: Adds some drama
I am a wedding and portrait photographer. I use the lens for these situations and love it. 1. To add some interest to dancefloor shots. I just hold the camera above the crowd and shoot down. The shots are playful and energetic. 2. To make a small, boring church look huge. Just shoot inside and watch out to keep your toes out of the shot. and for fun 3. To shoot kids and pets with big, cartoony heads. It's a great lens and fun to use.
