OK...
hot off the mark of my first L glass purchase (70-200 F4) I need something for slightly closer up work.
my current lens collection is:
Canon 70-200 F4 L USM
Canon 18-55 kit 3.5-5.6 lens that came with my 350d
Canon 50mm prime F1.8
Tamron 70-300 4-5.6 (slow lens but I quite like it)
Tamron 28-75 2.8 (Again a bit slow but my previous fav lens)
Tamron 18-200 3.5-6.3 (not a grea lens)
my kit is a canon 40d and a canon 350d
I am looking for something to fill the 18-70+ area so I can sell some of the other not so good lenses
i plan to end up with the 70-200 L
the 50mm
the 28-75
an other
the an other I want to be a decent lens (L) so I can keep the 28-75 Tamron on my 350d (which Mrs pingu will start using). call me sentemental but I have got some of my favourite shots with the 28-75 and dont really want tp part with it.
eventually I will get a longer L lens to cover 200+ but for now I dont really need one.
My main subjects are black and tan and run about a lot (my dogs) as I want something that will be able to get me decent shots of them close up. I am findng the Tamrons focusing too slow for me to get what I want (yeah yeah I know pan.... tried it.. gave up on it...trying to buy my way into making it easier) and the 50mm isnt versitile enough.
budget?
dunno but nothing silly
