    New lens req.

    Ive been pondering and contemplating over which lens to get to replace my kit lens (18-55mm) as a general decent walk around lens. Ive narrowed it down to 3: Canon 24-70mm f/2.8 Canon 24-105mm f/4.0 Canon 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6. Ive got a 350d and the kit lens just aint cutting it! Opinions...

    I have one last question before I leave u people alone for a while. Here goes How long would u say it would take for an "average" person to get to the stage where they can look at a scene/image/view or whatever and think "right, im going to need this FD, this F-stop, this ISO setting, this...

    Good point! I am hoping that things will become a lot clearer as time goes on, but hopefully u can appreciate its all a bit overwhelming at the moment (although VERY exciting). For buildings/architecture, what would be a good starting lens? Would the 28-135 f3.5-5.6 give good results?

    Thanks for all your help so far people! Whats everyones opinion on prime vs zoom lenses? Are primes really better quality overall? If so, in what way? Say for instance you had the choice of 2 zoom lenses both made by the same company, same type of glass, the only difference being focal...

    Cheers mr. With regards to funds, depends how quickly I'd be buying more lenses really lol. I'd rather not go about £4-500 per lens at the moment. Then when I know what Im doing then I'll stretch to more. One question tho, when u see lenses with max FD of say, 200mm, how "far" can that...
