Which walk around lens do you own?

[Galdor]

Thanks bro. 18-250 is a good travel lens but cant really ask so much of that lens... still like that dedicated lenses for each purposes during photoshots without family (with them just stick the 18-250 and enjoy the outing with family)

Cheers!

No problem bro.

 

[albertri]

yeah looking at the lens you have if those where fitted to APCS would have a wierd focal lenghts hehehe

I've tried A850 before kinda like it but I like something a bit smaller

Hehe bro, once u looked thru the OVF of a850, u realised big is not always a bad thing.

Some things in life is always better to be big, if u know what i meant.

yeah bro like the below pix? Was at the Zoo yesterday and saw these guys :bigeyes:

seeing them reminds me of your profile pix

I might go FF when I have the $$ for now I'll stay with the small toys where you dont need to spend big $$... but I have some few old minolta Lenses that is compatible with FF (I ithink)

Oh just want to add to the thread

nice walk-about lens or street photography I think is Minolta 28-135 f4-4.5 :bigeyes: tried this lens and it's nice colors and sharpness is pretty good

Yes!!!I can attest to that, having just got my hands on one of this Minolta Legends, this is nicknamed the "Secret Handshake"...

Its the most beautiful walk-around I've ever come along...
And am glad to have got my hands on one!!!!:bsmilie:

yea... i m the odd one =P

 

[albertri]

yea... i m the odd one =P

no worries bro most of my lenses are Minolta and all design for FF also or film (35mm) so my focal lenghts are wierd also but I like Minolta lenses

After playing around more with A850 hmmm I think one day I will have to jump to FF lols

 

[alphabeta93]

actually i think 28-xx zoom is not a bad range on an APSC camera. it works for me

yep 28mm is roughly 42-44mm for Sony APSC not that bad actually... now for all my street shooting I only bring two lens 17-50 (just incase I want a bit wider) and 28-135 I like to bring these two lenses out with me...

but if I want some candid shots will bring beercan or the minolta 100-300
