Thank you for that answer. We will have to learn as we go. Just a mom and some teenagers on an adventure! The Parfitts are heading to view the eclipse at a hill just outside of Hopkinsville, Kentucky. Still searching for a filter. We just ordered a Canon 70-300 IS II USM. So we will be able to tell you what we liked or didn’t like about having the “II” in the name. 🙂 We decided not to get an L lens just yet. Once our budding photographer is out of school, perhaps she will work for a fee doing weddings and such, and then we will consider an L lens. Right now she is experimenting with using my smartphone as a shutter release on our Canon 80D.
