Canon EF 70
Comments:
The 70-200/2.8 lens is one of the most popular professional lenses. Just about every camera and lens maker has at least one in their lineup and Canon has two (plus two more f4 versions). It's popular because it covers a very useful focal length range and
Review Verdict: the EF 70-200/2.8L IS USM isn't a cheap lens. Even with the current $125 instant rebate (good though Feb 17th 2008), the price is around $1585. However you get excellent optical performance and a very effective Image Stabilization system. With the additio

Hands-On Review: Canon EF 85mm f/1.2L II USM SLR Lens
Comments:
Boasting the widest aperture available with any current SLR lens, this f/1.2 model is unusually heavy/expensive because of the oversized optical elements that are required. By comparison, Canon's EF 85mm f/1.8 model is more compact and weighs a full 600 g

QuickTake:
Pros: Attractive design, Scroll ball is comfortable and easy to use, Works with Windows and Mac systems, Integration with Tiger is flawless
Cons: Side buttons are hard to squeeze, Comfort could be improved

Canon PowerShot SD1000 Digital ELPH
Comments:
There's a pleasing familiarity about the SD1000: Everything from the blocky silver case to the logical control set up is virtually identical to previous versions of the ELPH. Awesome! No steep learning curve. At 4.4 ounces, it's not exactly the lightest p

QuickTake:
Pros: Great minimalist design. Durable. Diminutive. Superb pictures. UI is incredibly easy to dive into-especially if one has any experience with previous ELPH models. Autofocus can be locked for manual use.
Cons: Locking autofocus for manual use is irritating. Proprietary rechargeable battery costs $60 to replace. Doesn't mount as removable drive in OSX.

Canon Digital IXUS 70
Comments:
The most noticeable internal change is the switch to the new Digic III processor. Canon says it enables longer battery life, faster startup, autofocus, and shutter response (we call this shutter lag).

Good standard lens that is inexpensive, but takes great photos. Great for those indoor events like parties. Plastic build may not last forever, but it is a great value.
