hai guys, i want to buy 7d.but i have a bit of confusion to buy lens whether EF-s or L-series ? my doubt is that L-seris lens will mount to this APS-C 7D body? plz help me guys...........

The 7D will accept either EF or EF-S mounts.

Go crazy...

Here's the skinny:

EF-S and EF lenses will mount on APS-C bodies.

Only EF lenses will mount on full frame bodies (5D, 1Ds/1DX, EOS film cameras)

L-Series lenses are the highest optical quality that Canon produces, and are never a bad investment.

There are also "L-Series" (NOT REALLY L LENSES THOUGH) EF-S variants that offer the same focal range and fast aperture, yet are designed for APS-C cameras.

so tyler......... u mean all L-series are EF lens ?

 

[o hey tyler]

Yes, all L series lenses are EF lenses. There are no L series EF-S lenses, and I don't think there will be.

In short, with a 7D you have the option to mount any lens Canon has made since 1987 (that's when EF was introduced). :thumbup:
