I just cropped the orig so I could see his colors better. Here's the original picture with his girl friend.

How much wood could a wood duck duck if a wood duck could duck wood?

The glowing is chromatic arboration. A side effect of shitty lenses. My tele does it if I'm not careful, I hate it.

i see, i need to find the same duck so i can check if my lens would do the same.

i just have the kit lens that came with the camera.

any suggestions on what to take picture so i can see if it will have the same effect on my lens?

Killermondodude · 05-31-2008, 05:15 PM

easy way is to check out the review of your lense

duck...duck....duck...GOOSE!

GSDUDE · 06-02-2008, 06:11 PM

Maybe you could offer some advice for me. I have a canon Rebel Xti. I have the Kit lens which is the Canon EFS 18-55 and a Canon Macro EF-S60mm Ultrasonic.

If I wanted a decent telephoto, one that won't break the bank nor get me nuetered by the Minister of Finance.... what would you suggest?

Taken from this review website
Canon Zoom Lens Reviews

Zoom Telephoto EF 70-200mm f/4.0L USM Autofocus Lens $560

Zoom Telephoto EF 70-200mm f/4L IS USM Autofocus Lens $1025

Zoom Telephoto EF 70-200mm f/2.8L USM Autofocus Lens $1190 (wouldnt mind having this one)

Zoom Telephoto EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM Autofocus Lens $1699 (The one i really want)

Zoom Telephoto EF 70-300mm f/4-5.6 IS Image Stabilizer USM Autofocus Lens $549

If i was on a budget (which i am) id get the the 4.0L
if you really want the best id get the 2.8L is (Which i will save for)

You will need to get the updated pricing cuz adorama has the 2.8L for 1525
