Hi everyone...
since i have joined this site around xmas time, i have managed to get so much help with my photography, advice, comments on my own pics, and new things to try.
I own a Canon 350D, with just the basic 18-55 lens still....due to other committments i havent managed to get around to purchasing a new lens. Now i feel its time to broaden my horizons and get a tele lens. I would also like to get a macro lens, but tele is higher on the list, as i spend alot of time outside, for sport, hiking, photography etc....and the 55mm lens just doesnt do it. (I am also off to africa for a month in oct, and want something good for the nature when we go on safari.)
I have been recommened the best to get would be a 80-200mm. Is this right, or can anyone else suggest a better lens to add to my bag, for a good general range. (I wanna get closer to things! but at the same time, im not a millionaire!)
If ya catch my drift, please drop me a line...need some sound advice....
(also if anyone lives norfolk way and ever wants to go out shooting (pics that is), whos emaybe more pro than me, i would be quite keen....gettin bored of flowers and trees!
Cheers guys...
