Re: [APML] CANON Lens quality



I use a Canon 200mm f2.8L telephoto, which is nice a nd sharp and , like most "L" lenses, is free of significant abberations/colour error/etc. The bad news: it's not cheap and may or may not be easy to find.  The Canon  70-200mm f.2.8 "L telephoto is expensive, but one of the best tele's around. Shots of starfields with th70-200mm are as sharp as the 200mm prime from what I can see. I also have a Sigma 15mm fi2.8EX fisheye, which is quite good for wide field pics, aurora, etc and it is relatviely fee from abberations too, especially stopped down to f/4 (which really helps with all of the lenses mentioned). I  have heard really good things about the Canon100mm  f2.8 (non-"L") macro too. Good luck!! Enjoy the 10D. Hope your skies are better than what I've been dealing with lately!!! :-)
 
Merry Christmas and Season's Greetings to all.
