AS for twiunning Rebels I think one should consider them as a goo
possibility as I have a friend who is using a pair-the main weakness appears
to be in using 28- 70 zooms which are about impossible to accurately set
equal focal length settings on each lens a common problem with zoom lenses,
especially if they are of the push pull type- just trying to point out a
potential problem, DON
