First off - apologies if there is a previous thread on this, still getting to grips with the forum.
I am looking at upgrading from the 18-55mm kit lens (I will be keeping this) that I got with my 750D and have been researching my options. Unfortunately a lot of the information I'm finding online is 4 or 5 years old so I'm not sure how accurate it is nowadays. Most folk seem to think the 16-35 is pointless on a crop sensor but despite not being as wide I'd like to think it will be sharper/produce a better quality image than the kit lens.
The two lenses I have been looking at is the Canon 16-35 and the Canon 10-22, although I'm more than happy to consider anything else that comes recommended. I do plan to move onto full-frame in the future but will most likely be sticking with the crop sensor for the next year or so. Is it worth my time investing in the 16-35 at this moment in time or would I be best looking at 10-22 or something else that is better used with the crop sensor?
My concern is that I purchase the 10-35 and in a year or so's time I go to sell it to find a full frame and lens and lose a lot of money on it.
FWIW I shoot 95% landscapes and whilst my kit lens has done me proud so far I do feel like I have come to a point I'd like to invest in better glass. I mostly shoot at the wider end of my kit lens and understand that 16mm becomes roughly 26mm(?) on my 750D. I also use my Lee Filter system (100mm) so ideally any recommendations should be compatible with that.
Any advice is appreciated
