What is the best lens for the Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT?

Sunday Mar 7, 2010

I purchased the Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT 8 MP about a week before christmas and I’m SO in love with it.
I love the details of the picture, but I’m curious to know if they could become better in any way.
People have been telling me that lenses would make the quality better?

I would like the image to look sharper, crisper, better?
And I really wanna do some macros!

Do you have any tips on lens or any other accessories that would help my photos?

Thanks!

A true macro can cost quite a bit.

As for the whole crisp and sharp thing, thats really up to you, and to some extent the settings in the camera. That kit lens can actually get pretty sharp zoomed to about the middle (not all the way in and not all the way out) and the aperture somewhere in the f/8 to f/16 range. Set your camera to Av, roll the wheel behind the shutter button until you set your aperture to 11 (just a number in the middle), press the shutter button half way and see what speed it gives you. If its less than 1/50th you will need to increases your ISO, just increase one step at a time as the higher ISO’s give a lot of noise. Find a happy medium and shoot.

The first lens i recomend is the http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/169267-USA/Canon_6473A003_75_300mm_f_4_0_5_6_III_Autofocus.html it’s a bigger zoom than your kit lens.
The second lens I suggest is the http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/12142-USA/Canon_2514A002_Normal_EF_50mm_f_1_8.html It doesnt zoom at all, but it has an aperture of f/1.8 which is awesome with low light situations. It also is a bit sharper than your kit lens. It does these things better because it just has to do them at 50mm and not a whole zoom range.

For Macro or close up stuff you could just get one of these http://www.bhphotovideo.com/bnh/controller/home?O=search&A=search&Q=&sb2bs%2Cupper%28ds%29&sq=asc&ac=&bsi=&bhs=t&shs=&ci=158&at=Magnification_Set&at=Size_58mm&basicSubmit=Submit+Query it screws onto your lens just like a filter (you should always have a UV or sky filter on your lens more for physical protection than anything else). They make higher magnification ones as well.

Help with Canon Digital Rebel XT screw up?

Sunday Feb 28, 2010

I have a Canon Digital Rebel XT and I accidently put the CF card in the camera backwards! It’s a Sunday and all the camera repair shops are closed! Does anybody know if there’s any possible way to eject the CF card out safely? The eject button doesn’t work.

You must have really pressed hard to get that CF card in. You may be able to get your card out, but you may have bent the pins inside your camera.

First rule in the book! Never force anything on a camera…period.

If you get the card out with some finesse using a hemastat, be sure too use a flashlight to look inside your camera … if any of the pins are out of alignment at all, take it to a repair shop in the morning. If you attempt to put the card in with out of alignment pins, you will bend the pins and raise the cost of repair to hundreds of dollars.

what guide for Canon Digital Rebel XT 8MP?

Sunday Feb 21, 2010

I just got the Canon Digital Rebel XT 8MP and I was wondering what would be a good book/guide for this camera and for digital photo in general.

Thanks.

Before you rush out to your local store and start buying books you might consider starting with the instruction manual which came with your camera. If you want to learn to take pictures correctly with it I suggest you turn in your camera and then sit with it turned on and your book and go through the settings you can make and how you can make them and practice etc. You don’t have to do a major study course on the instruction book but you should read it completely through at least once so you have some idea of what you can actually do with your camera, and how you can do it. Having done that start taking some pictures and see what you get. If you’ve read your book and you use the camera carefully and correctly, you should have some great pictures. Your camera is certainly capable of taking great pictures although it is no better than the photographer who is using it. If you feel you still need a little more instruction, look around for a local or school camera club to join. or check your local high school to see if they give a digital camera course in their adult education program. Taking a hands-on course like this is always far superior to buying a book on photography.
