Should i buy Canon 17-55 f2.8
- Thread starter sidmed5
- Start date
I've gone on trips where I bring my 17-55 and 70-200, and at the end of the trip I realize I haven't taken a single shot with the 70-200. Then I take out the 70-200 to take a few shots just so that I can "maximize" my equipment. If not, what a waste, brought the extra weight for nothing.
lol, happen to me too during my trip to China Guilin early April. Brought 17-55, 10-22 and 50mm f/1.8 along. During the whole trip, 17-55 is glued to my 60D, no time at all to change lens when travelling with a tour group in a light rain weather. Tried the 50mm though when we had some time to put our luggage in the hotel before heading to a night market.

Light rain on non L lens?

Can lah. A non-L lens doesn't mean it is made of paper. Having said that, exposing the camera and lens to rain is still a risk. If you are the risk adverse sort, keep them safe and dry then.

TS can buy a excellent condition USED 17-55.
Should you decide that it doesnt suit you, you can sell again at almost the same price you paid. provided you maintain the condition well.
i once bought a used camera bag at $90 and sold it at the same price 2 days later.
maybe it works for lenses too
correct me if im wrong.

Cool!
I did this today but think I didn't do the watch justice. Abit of glare and probably not setting the right aperture? If u guys arranging a watch shoot, pls invite. I'll be glad to contribute!

You can add in a CPL to cut out the glare....
To shoot watch, the best is to use a light tent....
I have not tried it before, but I seen the result, and it is great!
