If your budget is 2-2.5k, I would suggest a used C70-200mm f4 L.

oh it fits the budget? laugh.gif

any new alternatives i can get for around that price range? dad's not too keen on getting used lenses, and only God knows why. doh.gif sleep.gif

i'll check both them out and let my dad have a look at them. tongue.gif

but maybe it'll be the C50mm prime first, we'll see how things progress. laugh.gif

so it's either a new Siggy 70-200 F2.8 or a used C 70-200 F4 L. rclxm9.gif

where to look at second hand lenses ah? sweat.gif

Go to FTZ. So far the best online place I've ever come across.

Oh go to YL lor tongue.gif

Yeah get the 50mm , nifty fifty. You'll be happy with it for a long time.

yup, will definitely get a 50mm prime. most probably a Canon. build quality's not so good but what you pay is what you get, i suppose. tongue.gif

they are important at very bright area's they would help avoid lens flare.

how about in not-so-bright environments? would they block out required light? unsure.gif

no they won't, light is capture from the subject you are shooting, so you can practically keep the hood on all the time, except when shooting close-up, for close-up the hood shadow might fall on your subject

@wjie20~how much cheaper if bulk ?
*

i see. so having the hood on has more advantages than not having it on, right? smile.gif
