Good Filter for the Price
on April 15, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased the Platinum Polarized Circular Filter from Best Buy. Using the polarized filter really makes the blues and greens pop, and reduces haze frequently encountered on a bright sunny day. Really made a difference especially when taking landscape photos. Polarized filters can easily cost well over $100, but Best Buy's price was well under that. I'm very pleased with my purchase.

Makes A Difference
on March 26, 2016

Verified Purchase:Yes
When taking photos on a sunny day using my Canon T6s with the Canon 55-250mm lens I was getting a lot of haze in the photos. After a little research I found that using a circular polarized lens filter can reduce or eliminate the haze and reflections. I purchased the Platinum 58mm Circular Polarized lens filter at my local Best Buy and wow what a difference. The filter did clear up the haze and it also made a very noticeable difference in the clarity and color brilliance. It's a must have if you shoot landscape photos.

Great Little Lens

Verified Purchase:Yes
Purchased the Canon 50mm f/1.8 lens to use with my Canon T6s camera. I use this prime lens primarily for portraits and close-ups as well as in dim light situations and have been very pleased with the results. Decent quality for a great price. I also have Canon 18-135mm and 55-250mm zoom lenses. You can't go wrong with this nifty-fifty lens, especially for the price.

Could Not Get It To Work With My Macbook
on March 5, 2016
Posted by: George
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have a Macbook Air and was unable to get it to work with my laptop. Could have been operator error? I returned the device to Best Buy (hassle free I might add) and exchanged it for a Seagate drive that is designed for a Mac computer. Set-up was quick and simple to connect, but it's not wireless.

First purchased a wireless back-up device, but returned it because I could not get it to work. I then went with the Seagate device which is designed to use with a Mac. Simple and quick to set-up and works just fine with the Mac Time Machine. I have a Macbook Air.

Much Better Than Built-In Flash
on March 5, 2016
Posted by: George
Verified Purchase:Yes
Recently purchased my first DSLR camera from Best Buy and wanted a flash that offers a lot more flexibility than the camera's built in flash. I do a lot of portrait photography and the Canon Speedlite allows me to bounce the light off of the wall or ceiling rather directly in the subjects face. Big difference in the quality of the photo.

Good protection at a fair price

Recently purchased a new Canon T6s camera with the 18-135mm lens and to protect the lens from damage. The Platinum lens filter provides the protection I wanted at a very fair price when compared to many other filters on the market. I have not experienced any problems with the quality of my photos with this filter.

Canon states that I should be able get 440 shots with a full charge on my T6s camera which appears to be accurate. I purchased a second battery to keep in my camera case as a backup.

Canon EOS 6D DSLR Camera Body: This camera is an excellent choice for professional photographers who are just starting out or amateur photographers who are looking to move to the next level. Built-in GPS tracking makes it very useful for travel or nature photography, while built-in Wi-Fi lets you share your photos from anywhere.Memory card sold separately.
I currently have a cannon 6s and love it was wanting to upgrade soon to a full frame will my lens I currently have such as 50 mm 1.8 and my 85mm 1.8 work with this camera if I do upgrade??
If you upgrade to a Canon full frame camera any Canon "EF" lenses will be compatible. However, you can not use Canon EF-S lenses with a Canon full frame camera. I know that the Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 will work, but I'm not familiar with the 85mm f/1.8 lenses. If it's an EF series lenses it will work on a Canon full frame. Hope this helps.

What is the difference between 18-135 lens and 55-250 lens?
I have both of these lenses and use with a Canon T6s camera. I use the 18-135mm lens as my walk-around lens because it offers a wide range of focal lengths, wide angle to close-ups, etc. I use the 55-250 for the additional focal lengths if I'm shooting wildlife or distant shots.

Which lense for high school sports.....mainly football & soccer?
I am seriously considering buying this camera. A much wanted upgrade from my 1st DSLR Olympus E-510!
Is the 18-135mm lense sufficient for high school football and soccer games, or would the 55-250mm be necessary?
Have you used the 55-250mm and if so, how is it for these sports?
How well does the optical stabilizer work?
Thank you!

I have Canon T6s which came with the 18-135mm lens. It's a great walk-around lens, but for photographing sports I think you would be much happier with the 55-250mm lens to get the extra distance. I recently purchased a Canon 55-250mm lens for $299 and am very pleased with the results I am getting. It's a budget lens, but read the reviews and you will find that most people are very pleased with the 55-250mm Canon lens.
