    to those that replied to me above...

    um, you realize you could crop a full frame to same effect, do you even get it?, pixel for pixel, the data is there, the difference is you are losing all the extra data around the cropped area, it only seems convenient because it's essentially gone into photoshop and cropped it for you right as you took the photo making it appear "zoomed'

    crop sensors are trash, don't waste your money on them.

    case in point... a buddy has the 30d with the 24 1.4L. the soft edges are more defined and blurred on my 5d and on the other side of the coin the wide frame of my 16-35 2.8L can not be used to any effect on his cropped sensor of the 30d. an ef-s lens of the 10-22 is necessary for comparable images but useless as a versatile lens as it will not fit on full frame cameras

    • crop sensors are actually not crap. just different.Tungsten
    • missing valuable information is crapversion3
    • you're right, if you need some useful information let me know.Tungsten
