Hi i have just bought a canon 40D body only and am about to invest in a lens.
I am looking at a lens for landscape photography and was recommended the ef17-40mm f/4L USM, can someone please explain what all that means?? I am new and I am sorry but it does not mean anythhing to me.
ef ? 17-40mm ? f/4 ? L ? (why is it red?) USM ?
is it a "fast" lens? and what is the zoom?
any help would be gratefully appreciated and I would like to understand it before I buy it and will it be fine for landscape as recommended?
thank you.
