Q: I asked the other question, but I don't understand. It's an EF lens, and the Canon Rebel T6 accepts EF lenses? My camera body has the red dot, just like this lens. So what's the problem?

A: Yes, your T6 can use EF lenses. This will fit. However, you will want to research the difference between crop sensors and full frame. The actual focal length on a T6 will be 27-67mm.

Q: Has anyone bought and used this with the Canon T7i? I do not see it listed in the specs but was wondering if it would still work properly with my camera.

A: Yes this will work and shoot with a Canon T Series Cameras. Its an EF-Mount lens so it work on Canons with EF-mounting capabilities. I've used it on a Canon 60D and a Sony a7ii with Metabone Mount. This is a very good lens and a good entry level lens into Photography.

Q: will this lens fit my EOS 30 D Canon

A: Yes. The 30D is APS-C so the lens will function like a 27.2-64mm instead of 17-40mm on a full-frame camera. I used it on my 30D for several years and loved it. Perfect all-around lens at 27-64mm.
