From: rufus on 24 Aug 2005 11:55 I have a chance to get a Canon DSLR, model DS6041. Is this the same as the Canon 300D? If so, I've read that some "patches" are required to bring this particular camera up to snuff. ;) Any advice, in fact ALL advice, is much appreciated. I believe the 300D/DS6041 came out in Aug 2003.

A better camera, just older. Proceed with caution. You may want to consider just getting a new Rebel 300D since the price on that model has dropped considerably since the 350D/XT came out. Or just spurg and get the 350D/XT and be happy with a very impressive piece of work (almost as good as the 20D which is the replacement for the 10D) Take care, Linda

That's a whole different class of dSLR from Canon. None of the professional level dSLRs [Mark series or 5D) include the ability to use EF-S lenses. The EF-S lens is targetted toward the entry level/intermediate, consumer affordable, bodies (300D, 350D/XT, 20D). Those customers are not likely going to be buying too many lenses at 1000-12,000+ a pop like the pro consumers would (L glass) Take care, Linda "Celcius" <cosmar(a)rogers.com> wrote in message news:Tq2dnQe7SvbTNZHeRVn-ug(a)rogers.com... > However, it looks like the new Canon 5D will not take EF-S > Marcel > > "Linda Nieuwenstein" <buzzball(a)REMOVETHIS-allstream.net> wrote in message > news:Uu1Pe.62$hW.24(a)tor-nn1... >> also the 10D cannot take the newer EF-S Canon lenses.
