This morning I tried one of my older Canon lenses on my Canon Rebel 4Ti (650D). The lens was a Canon EF 70-300 f4-5.6 IS USM Zoom. While shooting with an APS-C sensor camera, this lens gives a lens reach equivalent to 112 to 480mm on a full frame camera. Being able to compose up to 480mm is nice.
The downside to this lens is that construction is poor. Lens elements are not the best. This lens proves for me that the limiting factor for the Rebel 4Ti is the lens. This lens is definitely inferior to the lens that I normally use, namely the EF 24-105mm f4 L, and the EF-S 10-22mm f3.5 > 4.5 USM. The EF-S 15-85mm f3.5-5.6 IS USM lens is a very sharp lens that is a good walk around lens because of it's equivalent range 24mm (very wide) to 136mm (medium telephoto). You really don't have to change lens unless you want to go extremely wide or long telephoto.
The Rebel 4Ti (650D) is a camera capable of providing great professional quality photos. If you decide to buy it, invest in one of Canons' better lens to get all the quality that this camera can deliver.
Enjoy !!!
PS: THE CANON EF-S 10-22mm f3.5-4.5 USM will be one of the lenses on a Canon Camera to record Felix Baumgartner's World Record Free-Fall Skydive (from an altitude of 120,000 feet), check out the brief video Canon EF-S 10=22mm and the Red Bull World Record High Dive
