Hi all. I currently have a Canon 40D and am looking to buy a new lens for it.
Currently I only have the 18-55mm kit lens and the Canon 70-300 F/4 USM lens.
I am looking for a lens that will fit the following:
A) A suitable upgrade to the kit lens mainly used for studio portrait/glamour shots
B) Be able to give a wider angle for landscape
C) Possibly offer some type of zoom upto around anything between 70-100mm (ish)
Is there anything that fits that criteria? 'A' & 'B' are probably the most important, 'C' I am not not fussed about.
I'm not too wories on lens manufacturer and price range is somewhere around the £400 ish mark.
I tried the 10-20mm Sigma wide angle and was very pleased with the wide angle results, but felt it would be too difficult for using in the studio as I would need to get too close to the model. If this lens could go upto around 50mm I would have gone for that.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated
