Problem I'm having at the moment is choosing the correct lenses for what I want to shoot, while trying to keep with in my budget.
I currently have the 50D with a Canon 17-40 f4 L lens. I would eventually like to purchase the 5D Mk2 some time towards the end of next year therefore my lens choices need to work on the FF as well.
Scenario 1
Should I get the 70-200 f2.8 IS and perhaps the 50mm F1.4 which would amount to about $3100 in Australian dollars. which would cover what I intend shooting, Although I dont think I need 200mm for weddings.
Scenario 2
Get the 24-70 f2.8 L and the 135mm f2 L This does not cover quite the range of the 70-200 but from what I read the 135mm is a better lens in terms of speed and quality of images being a prime. This would cost $3500 Australian Dollars.
Which scenario should I choose if I plan on doing wedding and event photography, By event I mean music concerts and sporting events. I also like shooting foliage.
Thanks for any advice you can offer
