Which Lens?

2004-09-03T12:09:34Z

Hello NG,
I'm looking for a relatively fast zoom lens for my 10D, trying to decide
between the Canon EF 70-200 f4L and the Sigma 70-200 f2.8 EX.

75-300: Canon EF-S III USM or Tamron LD Macro?

Hello!
Please help me making a choice:
What should I buy for my EOS 300D?
A) Canon EF-S 75-300 III USM
or
2) Tamron AF 75-300mm f/4.0-5.6 LD Macro Autofocus
?
Pro/Cons?
Moreover, I'd like to add either an EF-12 or an EF-25,
what difference is there between the two? Maybe they are
discountinued, since I cannot find their specifications.

heat absorbing filters used in enlargers?
