Prime F1.8/1.4 & Zoom F/2.8 lens advice please

[jhs2669]

Back to the original question... yes get a zoom and a prime. Your prime should be fast but 1.8 is fast enough for most uses.Get the 50mm 1.8 and enjoy it.

If you want to expand get the Sigma 30mm 1.4 or a Canon 24/28/35 whatever, instead of a better 50mm.

Stick with the 18-55 kit lens or look at a 2x-7x like the Sigma or a Tamron.

Yes

Get my 40D with Sigma 18-50 Macro F/2.8 + Canon 50mm F/1.8 :lovegrin:

merge ur budget for 2 lense into 1 and get the Canon EF-S 17-55 f2.8IS first?

Canon EF-S 17-55 f2.8IS :sweat: 1.3-1.6K+/- ! Huh

If you have tried these lenses yourself then you should be able to make the choice on your own
you can always listen and read other peoples reviews but ultimately its up to You the user on what would be a great lens for your personal use...

the 50mm 1.8 II is great value for money and the sigma 30mm f1.4 is great for 1.6 fovc bodies and takes great pics indoors (even in small spaces... )

Yes 50mm 1.8 is GREAT.

THANKYOU ALL:thumbsup:
