There are most assuredly accessories unique to specific bodies, but every production EF lens is compatible across the board with every EOS body made. My point is that there isn't any reason to buy lenses that aren't part of that compatibitly. There are plenty of alternatives from Canon and other makers that are. In 5 years time, the EF-S lenses will be novelties like the AF lenses Canon made for it's T90 body. So why waste money on them?
