Hi there,
Wonderfull podcast, very general, yet superbly precise info. One of the better Podcasts out there.
So in the line of this week’s newbie question, could you explain the USM technology, it’s equivalents on other lenses and in which style of photography is it worth to shed the extra cash for it.
I think glass names in general can become easily confusing with the model, series, IS/no IS, etc, extending to infinity.
Danke,
Emmanuel
