will the lense model number 2044b002 work with the canon t2i.

im trying to buy lenses for my t2i will this work . or can u give me a list of which lenses will work with the t2i.
The Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS Telephoto Zoom Lens (model number 2044B002) should work fine on the Canon T2i DSLR. In fact any EOS mount DSLR lens should work fine on the T2i.

Hope this helps!

Canon 12.1MP PowerShot Digital Camera Silver, 4GB Memory Card, Tripod & Pouch package is on the website, but not available for shipping?

It is not available for shipping and the only store locations that have it in stock are in this most remote areas hours out of the way passing 5 other Best Buy Stores. Will this change or is this product basically unavailable for me to purchase?
Without knowing the exact package you are referring to, and your specific location, it would be impossible to say conclusively why this package isn't available for shipping to your address. If I was to guess the warehouse that ships these items doesn't have one of the items in stock. My best suggestion is to go your local store, and see if they are able to order this package for you.

Hope this helps!

 67mm UV Lens Filter
67mm UV Lens Filter
This UV lens filter is compatible with most digital cameras that have a 67mm lens and features high-quality glass that protects your lens from dust and scratches while improving image clarity without affecting color intensity.
 

what strength is it?

uv lenses are avaiable in a number of intensities. what is this filter's intensity?
I think strength is a little misleading when referring to an Ultraviolet (UV) filter for camera lenses. UV filters should allow all visible light to pass through the filter, and only filter out light on the Ultraviolet range of the light spectrum. In the past there were certain films that were sensitive to some parts of the UV spectrum, but digital camera sensors are not sensitive to UV rays.

It is true that there are two different classifications of UV filters called L37 or L39. L37 filters remove all UV rays in the range of 370nm and shorter, while the L39 filters remove all UV rays shorter than 390nm. Since digital camera sensors are not sensitive to UV rays either type of UV filter will have the same exact effect on the image captured, which is none at all.

In fact the only benefit to having a UV filter attached to the front of a digital camera lens is to protect the front lens element, which is a very important thing to do. In all my years none of my SLR/DSLR lenses have ever been without a UV filter attached to the front of each lens. To be honest I don't know if this Rocketfish lens is a L37 or L39 UV filter, but if it is going to be attached to the front of a digital camera lens it makes no difference.

Hope this helps!

Why does Bestbuy sell wrist straps instead neck straps with their canon 7d

The Canon 7D should come with a neck strap that is packaged with the camera, but I can say that wrist straps for DSLR cameras are quite handy when actively shooting. Neck straps often get in the way, while a wrist strap will allow for more fluid positioning of the camera. With that said Neck straps are much better for transporting a DSLR over long distances with occasional use of the camera.

Hope this helps!

Can i finance a SLR camera without having a best buy credit card?

i want to finance a SLR camera for my photogrpahy, but do not want to get a credit card, but i do have a debit card. So if i have a debit card, but no a credit card would i still be able to finance?
I assume you are referring to our no interest financing offers; if this is the case you would have to apply for a Best Buy® credit card, and then use that credit card to participate in one of these offers. You should be able to use your personal Debit Card to make this purchase, but this would not have anything to do with our financing offers.

Hope this answers your question!

Running an obstacle/marathon, want to video....

I need a small video camera that I can easily attach to my hat to record as I run a 3 mile obstacle course/marathon in June 2011. There will be water and sweat and lots of movement. I am looking at the various "shoot and share" models and was wondering if anyone had any opinion as to which would best fit my needs.
It sounds like you need to get one of the GoPro helmet camcorders.

why are you not caring this in your stores

why is best buy not carinng the nikon sb-700 camera flash
The only external Nikon flashes we currently carry are the SB900, the SB400, and the R-1 wireless close-up flash system. I realize your question was why are we not carrying the SB700, but we would not be able to share the reasons why we are not carrying a particular model.

what cameras are wi-fi capable?

want to be able to email from unit.
There aren't many cameras that have built-in wireless capability, but if I was to guess this could be a feature that is just over the horizon. I know Canon and Nikon both have a Point-and-Shoot model that has this ability, but we don't carry either model (Samsung just announced their own Wi-Fi capable model.

Another way to approach this would be to purchase an Eye-Fi SD memory card along with any camera that accepts SD/SDHC memory cards. An Eye-Fi SD/SDHC memory card can connect to a wireless network allowing you to upload your images wirelessly (along with a number of other features these cards have).

Hope this helps!
