Lenses for the Canon Digital Rebel XTi

[P1X4R]

here's a shot with the canon extension tube (EF 12 II).

That shot turned out pretty good!

Out our curiosity, what lenses did you try the extension tube on? Did the results vary from lens to lens?

[P1X4R]

i tried it with the following

60mm f/2.8
85mm f/1.8
100mm f/2.8

they all lost infinity focus. a side effect that the ext tube creates.

btw, i already received the RMA from B&H. great customer service.

I hope to get a telephoto lens for holidays this year but the L series is out of my price range for now. Does anyone have any personnel experience with the Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 IS USM. I've read a few reviews and like anything else there's good and bad reported. So I thought I'd ask for first hand experience. It's an older lens by all reports but is it a good lens for outdoor shots and wildlife?

Thank You

That would be much appreciated, and if anyone else has any thoughts please let me know.
