Hey guys,
I wonder if any you budding photographers can help?
Well, the warmer weather is coming now, I promised myself I'd get me a new lens. I am looking for standard walkabout lens AND eventually a new Tele lens.
Firstly, Standard lens,
I did have a Canon 17-85mm IS USM, but I sold that because I was just changing lenses far too much - I found that for what I wanted to use the lens for, it was just a little too short. I am thinking about the Canon 28-135 IS USM as my walkabout lens. Now, I WOULD like something a little lower... like a 17 or 18, but I cant find anything like that. 17-135 would be ideal, lol. But I do want to stick with canon and I would like the IS and the USM on the lens. Plus my budget isn't huge. So yeah, the Canon 28-135 IS USM seems to be a good go. Does anyone have this lens or know of something better? Also does anyone know if this is a wide angle lens? I would like wide angle to shoot scenery.
Tele lens,
At the moment I cant afford two lenses, BUT that doesn't stop me looking, right? lol! I have the Canon 33-250 IS lens (sadly no USM). But I would like something a little longer, but no so long that I need a tripod. Now, I know they do a Cannon 70-300 IS USM one but that's over £400. They also do one without the USM, which is not bad. Does anyone have this? Or does anyone know of any other good tele lens, again, I want to stick with canon.
Sorry, I am very amateur-ish when it comes to lenses...
Thanks for any help you can provide.
(when I get my new lens, I promise to stop neglecting you all and take more photos of Marlee like I used to, lol).
