Thanks for all the responses guys... Some of the links have helped .. I think I kinda grasp the basics but I guess more practice helps... Im gonna be brave and post some images up soon and would like some advice...tbc...

Ok Yes I have a 400d (entry level) and I have two lenses sigma 17-70mm f2.8 - 4.5 and a nifty fifty I understand the effects of the fstops i was just wondering about the mm and yes i do mean the mm in the 50mm, ok so it is the focal length ... mmmmmmm well i am experimenting today..reading...

Hi everyone this may wel and truly be the dumbest thing anyone can ask but as a beginner i am still trying to understand the mm on the lens... Iv read some stuff myself and still dont really get it..sounds like complicated mathematics... I was wondering if anyone could break it down in simple...

OMG well I went back.. only to discover that is was completely ruined! there were scratches all over the show..so I did not get it...no wonder it was such a great deal anyway I bought 50mm f1.8 (48quid) instead as all the other markets were selling the 50mm f1.4 for 200 quid... Iv had a...

Thanks guys.. ok im on it tmrw as its night here..hope i get it!!! uneducated rick...i had a look at your photos and i like them, i like the soft exposures and they are nicely framed... I thought the one with the light house looked a bit murky..maybe that was due to the weather? maybe try it...

I Live in Korea and working on a few lighting projects... As I was walking around the electronics market I stumbled across a 2nd hand Canon 50mm f1.4 for less than 50quid... Ive read some stuff about the lens but would like some first hand experience/opinions on this lens...is it worth it...

thanks on the prophotolife linky...a lot of help for an amateur on lighting and one whos on a tight budget.... thanks again!

Ok so I went with the sigma ..i went to a korean camera market and got the lens for around 150quid with a UV lens and an extra batt! For the price its well worth it..for some reason they did not seem to have the 24-70 Just to let you guys know that korea has a SLR frenzy so grabbing acessories...

Moos3h - I only have the beginners. Canon EOS 400d...Yeah the wide limitation on the 24-70 was the only thing bringing me doubt, that and the + on the cash but i seem to get some good prices in Korea and the haggling in the shops here is crazy! I have two weeks till payday so more photo...

Ok so as a fresher in camera world, i have checked out two versatile lenses and i cant make a decision money does not matter What one do you think is best for an all round lens for a 1st time user and for wedding photography? 17-70mm sigma f/2.8-4.5 dc macro or EF 24-70mmf/2.8L USM ...

thanks for all the warm welcome..as soon as i have all my **** together ill be sure to get some photos up and see what you all think tbc...

Hey thanks man for replying Ill keep you posted with my buy just doing some basic photography course at the mo to see if thatll help me, im still trying to figure out all the figures and what they mean

Well tbh I like landscapes and cutlural pics but im more into learning the techniques and how to make something that looks crap into good... Im willing to spend like 300-500quid on a really good lens..since im living in Korea there is a lot of photo opportunites, Landscapes, nature.. all that...
