Hi
I just bought a 550D with 18-55 lens found that the zoom is not enough for me. Intent to get a budget new lens with better zoom range. wondering what lens will be the best?
Another good kit lens would be the 18-200, can check out the B&S
The best lens won't fit the term 'budget lens', but the mentioned 55-200 gets good comments here. Google for reviews.I just bought a 550D with 18-55 lens found that the zoom is not enough for me. Intent to get a budget new lens with better zoom range. wondering what lens will be the best?
Get the other kit lens. 55-200, if I'm not wrong.
But TS already has the 18-55. So the logical thing would be to get the other one, the 55-200, as opposed to getting the 18-200 and then having one redundant lens. Reason why I am recommending the kit lens is because he "just bought" his 550d with 18-55 which probably implies he isn't into any specialist photography such as birding (yet).
can always just sell it off and get the 18-200
I tink ur refering to the efs 55-250. Pretty sharp lens from what i heard here in CS. Selling ur 18-55 to get a 18-200 is not a bad idea too. If your not too picky with the IQ that is.
gotta define what you mean by 'budget' first.Hi

Option 2:
- Sigma AF-S 18-200 f/3.5-5.6
Then, Sell of 18-55, and get a External Flash.
First time I saw a Sigma with AF-S.... and it is canon mount too. :bsmilie:
huh?Third party have many different abrievation though..
Tokina has at-x... Sigma has HSM and OS for it's motor and IS... Tamron has USD for it motor and VC to replace IS
so, the sigma 18-200 is meant for aps-c cameras.. So af-s is relatively the same..
