Hi All,
Can anyone tell me what USM stands for and how does it work to make the lens a better choice?
I like taking Macro shots as well as scenic shots, what lenses should I go for? Reasonably priced ones would be good.. one that would be good for the Canon 300D. Many thanks |

Ultrasonic Motor
Used to Auto Focus lenses
Quieter and faster than non-USM lenses/motors.
I have a 75-300mm canon USM lens - excellent although still a low-end lens... |

As Are said this would be a great second lens to the kit lens!It is cheap but good and I would get the usm canon lens! I have the sigma 70-300 cheaper but not as fast autofocusing. |
