Canon EOS (APS-C) Lens Tests / Reviews
Lens Reviews - Canon EOS (APS-C)

Please note that the tests results are not comparable across the different systems. This does also apply for the new EOS tests based on the EOS 7D II vs 50D vs 350D because of differences in the sensor system (e.g. AA-filter) as well as different RAW-converters.

Please visit our Canon EOS Forum if you want to discuss a review or other topics!
