A quick search with google groups for this group didn't support your claim. There were a few that bought a cheap body (350/XT) who already had L glass for their MarkII. Take care, Linda

Those lenses are PROFESSIONAL level lenses made for Canon's PROFESSIONAL level bodies. Of course they are not EF-S. The Op is asking about consumer level dSLRs and all of those support EF-S (not the older 10D though) now and in the future...unless, as unlikely as it is, Canon decides to place the professional level sensor into a consumer level dSLR for $1000. NOT. Take care, Linda
