What consumer grade lenses do you own that you actually want to keep and are not a stop gap until you can afford a pro grade lens of the same focal range?
Do you have a consumer grade lens that you swear by?
Also I am thinking of getting me a inexpensive light weight lens to take into the mountains with me when my pack has to be minimal as possible. You know something that if it got smashed on the rocks I wouldn't feel the need to jump off the nearest cliff face. Something with acceptable sharpness will do but better than the budget range. This will sit along side my siggy 10-20 so needs to cover the range say from 24 or 28 onwards.
I have been looking at used canon 28-105's as these seem to be a popular stand up lens. It would be nice it it stretched a little longer and I have also looked at the Canon 28-200 although I can't seem to find much info on this one. I wouldn't go for the 18-200 ranges as I think they push the limits to far to be good enough and I really don't need that wide end.
So any ideas/recommendations?
