currently i can only buy 1 lens, after trade in.....
shall i narrow it down to canon only?
which 1 more useful? as a travel lens?
17-55, 17-40, 24-105?
i might miss abit of wide angle, but not much.
dream combination will be 17-40+ 24-105 + 70-200
but not now.
 

i only got a 50d + toki 16-50mm. dun have any other lens.
las time i choose between toki n tamron, n go for toki, so i dun think i'll go back for tamron...;p

Be grateful that at least u've a walkaround lens. I don't.

let me know if you're also bored with your 50D. can trade it with you. :thumbsup:
 

couldn't make up my mind yet. help ~~ any advise?
 

How about don't sell the lens and learn to shoot better photos with what you have?
 

To TS:
May I suggest you to go to the library, borrow some photography books and shoot more photos.
 

Hi,

If EF 17-40mm and toki 16-50mm were the same price, I don't know who want to choose toki. If you want to collect "L" lens since you love Canon, or you're very particular about detail in quality or you don't mind the budget to topup, then go for EF 17-40mm. Otherwise, just make use of the lens you have. I too love to have those lenses but money talks.

Best regards,

albert
 

I used to have 3 Ls as my lens setup. Then realised that as long as what's enough for u to use is gd enough, extras that u dun need, dun spend. So in the end i sold 2 of them.

Who would want to choose the Tokina? Someone who knows they need f/2.8 over f/4 and places needs over the "glamour" factor of a L lens. Seriously people, L lenses are nothing glamorous.

For travel lens, no doubt get the 24-105mm/4L IS

Not true. Some people just travel with a 10-22, for instance. Once again the age old statement comes out, but it is never untrue - it depends on the photographer's style.
