yup...however, 1.4kg still heavy.

wanna something real light...also i believe dat manfrotto cannot go low...unlike the other one.

most of the time I bring all my glass, my barang barang...if add dat tripod in..

man...sibei heavy after a few hrs walk. :sweatsm:

I use a Manfrotto 190XPROB. Imagine its weight plus ball head. Haha. I still haven't got my bag yet.

yeah i agree 55-250 is very good.. but i seldom hit that 200-250 range though.. haha maybe i'm juz finding an excuse to get another lens

been considering the 24-105 and the 70-200 f4 IS... and a flash for a very long long time.. it's time to make a decision soon

My decision making comes next year. Man. I still have to wait. Haha. Make a correct choice.

my thought...no need wait. just buy.

get the 70-200 for the distance, flash to go with ur 17-55. swee swee liao.

Hello Everyone,
Ive just joined club snap and find lots of info. I hv a canon 400D ( with 18-55 and 70-300 kit lens) and hope can join this 450 club.
I just bought a tamron 17-50 f2.8 to replace the 18-55...i take a lot of indoor photos. Im thinking of getting additonal lenses like sigma 10-20/canon 10-22 and the tamron 90mm macro or canon 100mm macro ( price? ). Would these lenses compliment my 17-55 and / or suggestions. Im a novice so plse bear with me. How is the 70-300kit........should i keep?

hmm...actually my take would be:

17-55 + 24-70 + 70-200 (got $$$)

17-55 + 24-105 + 55-250.

Personally, 70-300mm lens doesn't produce that much of a good image, but its pretty ok. You've got a tamron 17-50mm f2.8, which is good. As for the 10-22mm lens, its up to you if you need it. If you like taking landscape, go ahead and get the lens, but if you are not going to use it much, it'll be a waste.

17-55 + 24-70 + 70-200 (got $$$)

17-55 + 24-105 + 55-250.

Yeah, i don't mind that combo either, but NO MONEY!!!!!!!!!!


Mine if hopefully updated would be something like this next year.


18-55mm, 55-250mm, 24-105mm/17-5mm(Depends which i choose)


Have you guys seen a 18-55mm on a 50D, the lens looks real small on the camera. Haha.

anyway i was using a 70-200 on monday at marina barrage taking portraits at my frens then pple keep staring.. me and my frens damn paiseh

haha after that i switched to 17-55 to be low profile a bit

 

[nirmaljitsgh]

Hey Guys....thanks for advice. Would the tamron 90mm macro be a better next lens to get (existing tamron 17-59)......is it good for potraits as well. How is this lens compared with canon 100mm macro. For a amateur is a true 1:1 necessary compared to waht macro i can do with my 70-300mm?

 

[RyanG]

I saw that thread on Manfrotto Tripod. Is it suitable for DSLR since the TS states that its suitable for compact-SLR with built-in lens. Max wait is 2.5kg I supposed.

What if i mount my body with a 70-200, that would be a problem isn't it? Any other brands of tripod that is under the price of $150? Cos I am going to get one soon. Pls recommend.

Thanks.
