I bought the Canon Extension Tube EF25 II which arrived yesterday. I put it on my Canon 60d together with my 50mm 1.4 lens. Then I tried to take photos with the autofocus on and no matter what distance I tried it would not focus or take a photo. Then I put it on manual and when I focused very...

I just had a look at the lens you bought Bobby and it´s actually not that expensive, but it starts at f/4 doesn´t it? I´d rather have one which has the option to let more light in. So don´t think that is an option for me, but thanks for mentioning it.

Hello, I just thought about it and it doesn´t matter to me if it could also be used on ff or not. The only other thing I just read was. The Sigma 18-35mm has no image stabilization and the Canon 17-55mm has it? Is that right? And if yes does that make a big difference?

Thanks for all the comments so far. I didn´t even consider or notice the Sigma 18-35mm F/1.8 before. Now that I know about it, it does really look good to me, just a bit more expensive than the 17-55mm although I saw it in an online shop for even cheaper than that. Now I´m torn, too. Can the...

Hello, I need your opinion as I´m not sure which lens to buy next. I have the Canon EOS 60d and the Canon EF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6 IS which came with the camera and then the 50mm f/1.4 At the moment I mainly take photos of newborns for which the 50mm is great, only in very small rooms I get...

Hi, I´ve got a Canon Powershot SX40 HS which I used before I bought my dslr camera. And I bought it because of that zoom and thought it was great. I mainly used it to take photos in zoo´s where the animals where far away and even handheld it was taking great photos. At the beginning of using my...

Yes I´m going to start a 6 months photography course in January, but would already like to take photos of my baby and friends newborns when they come before then.

Thanks for your reply. But to come back to question, none of those is any good then? If I want to take indoor pictures of my baby? Or other children indoors?

Hello, I´ve no idea about flashes. I´m thinking of getting the Canon Speedlite 430EX II for my Canon EOS 60d. I want to photograph newborns, mostly in natural light, but was thinking of what to do if there isn´t enough light. Is any of the following items useful and if yes which one of them is...

Thanks for your reply. Yes in Hdew the camera was the same price as in any other shop here in the uk, just with a longer warranty. But I realised that they only give you 1 year warranty on the lenses and also you pay for shipping, as well. Panamoz way way cheaper and has more warranty on...

Hi, thanks for your comment. Where about are the serial numbers? Are they under the camera?

Thanks so much for all the comments. Also thanks for mentioning Hdew Cameras! I´ll know where to buy now. :-)

Yes I was looking at digital rev and yes they offer 1 year guarantee. So the camera itself is no difference then I guess. Just sometimes the issue of no warranty. Will have a look at Panamoz, thanks for replys.

Hello, I´m just about to buy my first dsrl camera. I´m going for the Canon EOS 60d. While I was comparing prices I realised that there are huge differences between the shops. Some shops say that they are selling the Asian version of the camera. What does it mean? Is it still the same...
