Thanks John.....
I dont want any lenses for astrophotography...like you said I can use my 80mmED for real wide view shots...I just want something reasonable for family shots with a Zoom.
I also have focal reducers so have many combinations just by useing my current scope setup.
I have been told the standard 18-55 lense you get is fairly ordinery so I would like to go a step up...but saying that I dont want multiple lenses...thats why i am looking at something 18-100 that I can get some use out of for most personal applications...not astrophotgraphy.
maybe the 28-105 USM is a good comprimise.

BTW the 20DA does not come with any lenses...BODY ONLY.
I know nothing about DSLR so I dont want to go and get $1000 lense just for some family pics to start with but considering I dont get a lense I thought I could go for something a little better then the standard lense canon gives out on most DSLR models.
Give me some model numbers and I will check them all out.
