Hi, thats right my aperture drops out significantly at full zoom.

Hi all, had a test outing today. The 50mmwas great indoors for portraits but wasn’t wide enough for some shots. Once the Tamron went on I had to seriously crank the ISO up to get anywhere near enough light. The Tamron I think only goes to f3.5 aperture which wasn’t letting enough light in...

Hi, just been researching your recommendations, what will the 24mm do that the 50mm won’t? Get a wider shot I’m assuming? Is that right? Is quite a quick lens isn’t it? Canon do one for under £100 is that right?

Wow thanks guys for all the advice. I think I’m getting there! Could someone explain the full frame and cropped camera thing, I’m assuming the canon 750D is cropped? From reading all the comments, it’s appears my 50mm should be good for portraits, the Tamron is better for travel zoomed...

Thanks for taking the time to reply....isn’t a 28.8mm wider than a standard 24mm then? I’m assuming to lower the number the wider angle in this case? What lens would you recommend for wedding/event style photography in addition to my two I already have? Thanks

Hi, Hoping there are some friendly people about who could give some honest advice please. Using a Canon 750D with a Tamron 18-270 lens. Recently bought a con 50mm 1.8 for portrait bits. Would it be worth investing in a wide angle lens too? In particular I’m looking at shooting at charity...

Anyone been there snapping?

Great wildlife shots. What do people think of the Tamron 18-270 lens? I’ve inherited it as a beginner?
