What is the difference between the III Lens and the IS II Lens please?

Hello, I thought the same thing when I bought it. The IS II Lens is an older type of lens with Image Stability. The III Lens is the newest type of lense but doesn't include image stability. I went with the III Lens because it was a lot cheaper and I found the Image Stability unuseful for what I needed it for. (A level Photography) Hope I helped. :)

What is the difference between the III Lens and the IS II Lens please?

Both lenses have the same focal length (18-55mm) and aperture range. The key difference is the IS II lens features Canon's image stabilisation system. This means the lens can actively compensate for small vibrations/movements when the camera is hand-held. Image stabilisation means that you can use slower shutter speeds and still get a sharp image. One point to note is that IS should be turned off when using a tripod - as it can actually work against you and give a blurred image!As the IS system can be switched off I would suggest going for the IS lens as it will help ensure crisp, blur-free images.

Would this be a good starter camera for astrophotography with time lapse and long exposures

I have had this camera for about a year, my main interest is astrophotography. I have found it to be very good indeed, I have been getting equally good shots with the kit lens as those with much more expensive equipment. You will have to take your time and be prepared for a lot of duff shots. However once you get used to the settings you can take some remarkable shots.

Will this cammera be good for high speed sports photography?

It is possible for your to capture fast moving subjects, but this camera is not really built for sports photography. This camera will product 3 frames per second, where as something like the 70d will produce 7 frames per second. This camera also has far less focal points that the cameras above it.
