    Canon L lens or Canon EF IS USM?

    Can't afford it, unfortunately. :( Most of the ones I've seen have been over £600.

    Canon L lens or Canon EF IS USM?

    EDIT: I've just realised I should have posted this in the Cameras, Lenses and Accessories forum, sorry. Okay, I can't make my mind. I'd love a decent 70/100 to 300 mm Canon lens, and I'd like to treat myself to an L lens. However, I can't seem to find a 100-300 L lens that's in my budget...

    Stupid question about developing B&W film.

    Hi - I'm a complete newbie to developing 35mm B&W film (I've only done it once before, and it was in a classroom environment), and on the last batch I did, the numbers along the edges of the film aren't as dark as they are on previous batches. (The images look paler.) What's the most likely...
