afternoon folks,
I've currently got a 600D with 30 and 50mm primes. I have utter disdain for the 50mm, the image quality is awful compared to the other lens so I never use it, the problem is that occasionally 30mm just isn't wide enough and with the current cash back offers and interest free credit now seems like a good time to replace it.
The 24-70 f4l seems like a good option but I'm not sure if I'm going to notice the extra 6mm (9) or wish I'd gone wider.
The 17-55 is usm seems to get great reviews from what little I've read and possibly covers the required range but there are two things holding me back. It's comparatively a lot of money for a standard zoom lens that isn't an L and it isn't FF compatible. I can't see me going FF any time soon but then I couldn't see me spending £5-600 on a lens either until last week, so maybe it's best to hedge my bets for the future.
Then there's then 24-105 f4l, that's if 24mm is wide enough. It's probably more practice but I'm not sure I need the extra focal lengthnor the worthy to be honest.
So, opinions are greatly welcomed as are suggestions if I've overlooked a lens.
