Each lens is no caste-caste, good zoom lens, telephoto and fix. This post provides little guidance for the dizziness select Canon camera lens numbering tens. This article also aims to ease the burden on me to answer questions about the lens.
I do not discuss here all lenses, especially the special lenses (macro, tiltshift etc), but the common canon camera lens such as zoom and fix pretty much what I write here. Also my old lenses do not cover because most are not manufactured anymore.
There are two types of Canon lens by its diameter, the EF-S and EF: EF-S lens, in accordance with the initials "S" which means small, with diameters smaller than EF lenses so it can only cover the APS-C sized sensor. Most of the Canon DSLR cameras have sensor of outstanding APS-C type. EF lens diameter is larger than the DX lens so it can cover the APS-C sized sensor and a full frame of 35mm film equivalent physical size.
There is also labeled L series lens, which is usually characterized by a physical lens white or / and the red circle. L series lens is high-quality and usually has a material body that is waterproof and dust. All L-series lenses are EF lenses, suitable for all Canon EOS DSLR cameras.
Below the lens suitable for Canon EOS DSLR cameras are still being produced to this day. For the price, estimates only, to be exact-check to store your favorite camera store.
