Canon Eos 10d Camera

I just bought a used Canon 10D Camera three weeks ago.
I'm shopping for a good wide angle or all round lens around $600. That my budget.
My photography is shooting people/fashion, cityscapes....more artistic photography.
But I'm not sure what lens are compatible with my 10D.
I would prefer Canon lenses.
But I will consider Tamron lenses too.
If there any other Canon 10D owners out there please I need help.
I'm at wits end on what lens to get.
Help!

According to Canons website, the 10D is compatible with all EF lenses. That is to say all autofocus lenses that are NOT EF-s, where as the EF-s or EFs lenses are for smaller digital mounts (later EOS models took the EF and EFs lenses).

In simple english, your camera will take all of Canon's 35mm autofocus film lenses just fine. As for the third party lenses you want to avoid "for digital mount" or "not for film".

I do not own a 10D and this camera may very well work with an EF-s lens, but from what I saw on the website it doesnt.

As for specific lenses my favorite for the money is the Canon Normal EF 50mm f/1.8 II Autofocus Lens. Its pretty sharp and is really good in low light due to the f/1.8.
A pretty good all around near and far lens is the Canon Zoom Normal-Telephoto EF 55-200mm f/4.5-5.6 USM II Autofocus Lens. I do not own this one and cant make any comments on the quality of it.
And Sigma makes a 28-300mm lens.

All of these are under $300, you could get a few of them if you wanted.

Canon EOS 10D + lots of extras for sale on Ebay, including the remote shooting hack I built myself (tiny wirleless spy camera + tv receiver). I ...

I bought this from a friend and after charging the battery I found that the self-timer is on and I don't know how to turn it off!! Please help :)

If it's anything like my Canon 30D there's a button on the top that says "drive/ISO". Push that and then turn the wheel until it's off of timer mode.

In the future you should consider reading your manual. If you don't have one just search Google for "Canon 10D manual" and you'll be able to get a free pdf copy.

I'm an amateur photographer who is looking to upgrade to a dslr. would this be a good camera or is it a piece of trash compared to the 20, 30, 40, 50d?

When I was low on money I seriously considered a 10D. I'm glad I didn't get one for various reasons. The layout of the buttons on the 10D is awkward, the LCD screen is tiny and it can't use EF-S lenses. It also uses an older image processor and has less AF points. All that being said, you could still take great pictures with it. Afterall, it's the best people had 8 years ago and they still took great pictures. Buttt, if you can afford the extra $200 for a 20D I'd get it.

As i buy a new canon EOS-10D camera, but its battery can only last about 3 hours , so i want to buy a battery replacement , Its battery code is bp-511, bp-512. I found a one in http://www.digitalcamerabattery.org/digi tal-camera-battery/canon-bp-511.htm. But i m not sure the one can fits my EOS-10D, or i should buy a OEM battery?

Why take chances on those no-name OEM batteries when the real Canon BP-511 (or BP-512A) are only $46 (no tax and free shipping!) at Abes of Maine:
