I'm new to DSLR only a month or so in, I used to use my dads old film practica a fair bit but its been compact and compact with manual functions for the last 9 years.
I was so close to buying a 5D mkII over the 500D but I decided as my first step in to DSLR I would save the cash, learn what Im doing and take it from there, the plan is to buy decent glass for the time I upgrade as there is no point buying twice and I always regret buying somthing lesser when I know there is better available.
Kit so far
500D + kit lens
canon 50mm 1.8f
canon SL 580EX II
I am looking to replace the kit lens with a good walkabout maybe a little longer 24-70 2.8 or the 24-205 4f. A longer zoom in the 70-200 2.8 IS then somthing a little wider but thats where Im unsure, everyone says the sigma 10-20 but its an EF-s so no good in the future.
Hopfully this place will help me decide.
