^ gibrish. lol out of the 4, well out of the 3 (that pro lens is ridiculous) which is the better one? I will base all my lens buying off that

 

lol just depends what your shooting.
all 3 of them should only be used outdoors in daylight
in low light they will all fail terribly.
so again depends what u want to shoot just dont expect to pick up one of these and go shoot an indoor sporting event.

 

o i c.... well im gonna be shooting mostly outdoors but i like to snap piks of the kids in the house as well...

 

For indoors I'd use a prime or a quick mid-range telephoto. Either the 50mm or 35mm for a prime. The Tamron 17-50mm is an affordable telephoto with a f/2.8 max aperture.

 

if you go canon grab the 50 1.8. You can find them new/used ~$100. It's a cheap prime that can produce regardless of what people say. Sigma makes wonderful lenses with an affordable price tag. I had the Sigma 24-70 and besides it being loud with the AF it was a great lens.

 

thanks folks... I dont wanna over take the thread with my n00bness but, for outside shooting done I want something with a reach of like 200-300mm for zoom?

 

Been playing around with the new cam... think Im finally getting the hang of it. First good pik Ive taken

 

depends. Here is my set-up for right now. I shoot mainly auto-portraits, food, and drifting:

Bodies:
Canon 7D
Canon 1D MKI

Lenses:
Canon 70-200 f/4
Canon 35 f/2
Canon 85 f/1.8

I also have access to a Canon 5DII, Canon 17-40, 24-70, 80-200, 50 1.2 and a few others if I give my co-worker a days notice to bring them in for me.

It all depends on you usage. For anything automotive, I use the 70-200. If I need something wider, I borrow the 17-40 or the 24-70 but so for, I haven't needed to. For food, the 35 and 85 for brilliantly (look for some photos soon). For drifting events, the 70-200 is usually enough, but for this season I am renting a 300 f/2.8 IS because now I have the 1D.

Hope that helps.

 

See I have a Canon Rebel xt with the kit lens which is a 18-55mm lens which takes ok indoor piks but when I get outside... fail

 

nynctc, Id like to see some piks using that 70-200mm please

 

why does the lens fail outside?

 

i think the 18-55 is a good lens outdoors.

 

well after playing with it for a while (about 4 hours lol) figured out some settings. Its pretty ok actually... still need something better already though. Here's a couple piks I jus took after tinkering with it. If you can tell things that can be adjusted/changed lemme know.... these are all raw photo's

 

new whip

 

im surprised u r failing out side and not inside...r u shooting manual? or full auto?

 

shooting manual inside and jus use the auto for outside

 

me? or mmpshh??

what is wrong when you shoot outside? i usually shoot with Time value if im outside since it is bright you can have a faster shutter speed, and check your white balance, but when you move inside check your white balance again.
