Placing an order for the Rebel XT and looking at the

SIGMA CORPORATION
105 mm F2.8 EX DG Macro Lens for Select Canon Mounts

Good lens?

 

[BlueCorn]

Yes - that's a decent macro.

Or this one, it's about $100 less.

Canon - EF 50 mm f/2.5 Compact Macro Lens

 

[BlueCorn]

Get the 105, it's better suited for aquarium use.

Cool, thanks for the fast response. Got a coupon code and need to get it ordered. Thanks.

 

[Ereefic]

Coupon codes, glad I found that. Saved 15% with the code.

The Kodak LS443 recently died, so it's time to step up with the big boys.

cichlidfreak:
Now's the time to do it with the $100. rebate going on. I got mine 2 weeks ago and love it. There are rebates on a number of lenses as well.
Right now I dont think I'm getting any lenses except for this little cheapy guy:
Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Autofocus Lens
Its only $74.23 at Amazon and has excellent reviews despite its price. No rebates available for this one, though. They do mention that its fairly flimsy and its not a USM driven lens but for the price, what the heck. Should hold me off until I can afford the lenses I *really* want.
