**Izzy** · 05-12-2008, 12:32 AM

What are you trying to shoot? How are you planning on shooting? How much are you planning to spend?

CivicCoupe06 · 05-12-2008, 09:08 PM

I like shooting scenery, animals, cars. I have a 28-135 now.

lilchoi26 · 05-14-2008, 02:51 AM

17-55 or 17-40 ;D

**Yodums** · 05-14-2008, 01:45 PM

Budget? Generally what focal lengths are you shooting at?

CivicCoupe06 · 05-14-2008, 06:40 PM

no idea what that means lol. New time DSLR'er

JeShUa · 05-14-2008, 08:40 PM

You should be fine with what you have for a while.

**Izzy** · 05-14-2008, 09:30 PM

That's what I'm thinking. With a 28-135, it's a very good walkaround. The only reason I could think of to buy a new lens is to dip into wide or telephoto.

dtexan · 05-14-2008, 10:33 PM

50mm F1.8 only cost around $60

KameraBoy · 05-15-2008, 12:48 AM

invest the money you would have bought a lens for into a good tripod for some night shots.

The Canon 50mm f1.8 Mark II "nifty fifty" can be had for around 70-80 used, so he's not far off.
