Zoom lens for 350d
-
Hi all, invested in a Canon Eos 350D as an ugrade from a Kodak 6490.
Delighted with the camera but I do miss the 10X optical zoom.
Mainly for sports and landscape snaps which lens would you recommend?what sort of money do you want to spend
I assume you have the 18-55 kit lens
Yep thats the lens kit I have.
Money wise I have absolutely no idea about lenses so I suppose I will need some recommendations before I decide.
I dont have a set budget, more so will see how much I need before choosing.well if you want to spend some serious money the canon 100-400 is a very popular lens
but if you want to spend maybe 300 or so get the sigma 75-300 lots of people have them here and say they are great
Cheers stcstc, probably best with the sigma for now.
Can really justify the canons price as I am more or less a beginner!
Any idea as to the best place price wise to order this?
Canon 70-300 IS USM f4-5.6
Check this lens out. I just got one and I’m very happy with it. The IS is superb! Its good at the 300 end which is where most of the consumer zooms in the 70/75-300 range fail at.
Not strictly a sports lens but a great allrounder. (If you want a dedicated sports lens you will pay big big bucks)http://www.calumetphoto.co.uk/item/321-070B.html
Calumet are in Belfast and can ship to you for around ?15 or so, overnight (although not sure if they have it in stock at the moment or not).
