You might want to try playing with a 50mm f1.8 lens. It's very affordable compared with other lens and it produces great pictues (of course don compare it with a f1.4 la). If you're good at bargaining, you could get it a little lesser than RM300 with UV filter.

I'm getting mine next week. smile.gif

i got mine for RM 250 or so. used unit la but works like new, with filter some more.


QUOTE(fcbarcelona-my @ Dec 1 2007, 11:44 PM)
maybe we can start with macro lens..coz it seems hard to snap a macro pic using standard kit lens (bundled with 350D while brought it). so..any advice?


try reverse-kit lens technique. quite fun.

f/1.4?

Why have 1.4 when you can have 1.2L?

not everyone has the budget. smile.gif the other day i saw people shooting wedding photos - using 1.4 also, mounted on 1dmk2 la. smile.gif

Kit lens is good enough for starters. Play around with it first and take nice pictures with it. If you think it's not good enough, then start searching around for a better one. smile.gif

yup. in fact it's still good to take nice photos.

in the end the kit lens however will be replaced once you've out-grown it.

i've not touched my kit lens for few weeks already, until last night. wanted something small and with short zoom range. smile.gif lazy to mount my 18-200 OS cos that fella is heavy and much bigger.

Added on December 2, 2007, 3:17 ambtw, guys i found this lens calculator. Just go and see how's the focal factor on your camera, just remember what crop factor your camera is then apply the lens on it.

http://www.sweeting.org/mark/lenses/

I found out that the 17-40L's 100+ angle of view only works on the full frame =/ makes me think twice whether i shud get it or not, because im a wide angle freak sleep.gif

If you planning to go for full frame, then maybe you can consider Sigma 12-24mm! drool.gif
