David Ward replied to Pradyumna Roy's discussion Calculation in the group Canon User Group"you need the size of the base lens ie x2 extender on 100mm = 200mm. A lot of compact cameras measure the lens with 'x zoom', therefore it is the same principle. You may have to read the specifications to find the base lens…"
David Ward replied to Joel Osten's discussion What lenses should everyone have? in the group Canon User Group"Learn to walk before u run. It is far better to have a few quality lenses than a bag of lenses you rarely use. Find out what u want to specialise in first, the lenses that u have will cover most areas adequently.
I would…"
David Ward replied to Anil Patil's discussion Need advice on canon lens. in the group Canon User Group"The 2x extender adds on 2 f stops so this will increase yr f4 up to f8 so will not be very useful in low light situations but cheaper than a new lens. I suppose it depends on what u use it for and more importantly when ie early morning or near…"
David Ward replied to Tony's discussion Should i sell 10-22 efs to get 70-200 f4 IS in the group Canon User Group"There are a couple of things to take into consideration Tony.
What price u get for your lens, used goods normally don't sell as high as new but u might get lucky. Is the price you get worth lossing the lens.
Why get a 70-200…"

"great portrait, not sure about the gauss effect though, a little too heavily applied IMO"
David Ward commented on Earl E. Gibson's group Canon User Group"sry Richard I must have missed something. I didn't mention stands, modifiers or softboxes. Nor the price of any lights.
I just gave examples of why some ppl might prefer strobes over studio lights. That is not to say that one…"
David Ward replied to Sandra Silva's discussion Wide angle Lens for 5D MarkII"tks for the heads up Ali. I saw photos using this lens with a 1D (I checked at 16mm) and thought it would be a good suggestion. My bad! : /"
David Ward replied to Sandra Silva's discussion Wide angle Lens for 5D MarkII"the Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 is a great lens at a reasonable price and although I haven't used it I have seen the results from a photographer that specialises in low light photography. Check out some of the results…"
David Ward commented on Earl E. Gibson's group Canon User Group"Richard I think lightweight, flexible (in or outside operation), easier to store and transport but most importantly a good way to dip your toe into lighting work without making a full commitment to a 'full studio' in expense and dedication…"
David Ward commented on Earl E. Gibson's group Canon User Group"Useful links that I have found for off camera (strobist) info is http://strobist.blogspot.com/ or http://pixsylated.com/ both of these are great with the latter site being Canon specific (also an author of a recently released book about…"
David Ward commented on Earl E. Gibson's group Canon User Group"Wanda, I was wondering why u need a fill flash. Is this just for extra light at a party etc or more formal portraits. If the latter I would go for the EX-580 for the extra power and adjustments/ options.
I also think this…"
