Here is my answer to this member's question:



A:    Dear eBay Member,


That is the easiest request to fulfill ever! The answer is:


Every Canon EF series lens is 100% compatible with your EOS Digital Camera! It makes no difference how old they are (all the way back to 1987). There are also several "special purpose" lenses that will fit too, but if you actually need those highly specialized lenses (TS-E "Tilt-Shift" or MP-E "Macro Photography") you would already know about them.


Just be sure to take into account the effect that the 1.6X "Crop Factor" of your Digital camera will have on the apparent "Field Of View" of the lens.

Just remember, If the lens's model number has the "EF", "EF-S", MP-E" or "TS-E" prefix, it will fit your camera body perfectly.

Best wishes,

David


Introduction To The Q & A Guide Series:

I have been answering potential bidder's questions about the items that I have listed on eBay for several years. One kind person suggested that there may be other members who have wondered about the same subject, but may have been too shy to contact me directly. He suggested that it could be useful to post his question, and my answer, for others to see. He recommended that it could be done in the form of an eBay Guide.

This is the first in a series of Q & A "Guides" that will be posted.

This series of eBay Guides is based on real questions that were asked of me through eBay Messages, using the "Ask The Seller A Question" feature on my listings. Hopefully, these Guides, based on my actual responses, might provide useful answers to some of your questions too.
