Hi there! So I'm going to soon be in the market for a new lens and I just wanted to hear different opinions.
So I currently use an XTi with a wonderful Canon 10-22/3.5-4.5 ultra-wide angle. The lens is a god send! I mean even on a x1.6 cropped body, the range is outstanding, but as much as I love the lens, I need a more "normal" angle lens. This is where your opinions enter.
I mainly shoot landscape and I would label myself as a "prosumer". I need more of a walk around lens. I've been looking at a certain piece of glass that could work and has got raving reviews.. The Canon 35/1.4L. I will definitely test it before buying, but from what it seems, it's amazing. And so is the price tag
Now, I was hoping to hear what you guys think about the prime. I understand that with a prime, you're more restricted due to the lack of zoom, but for those of you who use one, what do you think? How have they helped you on the field?
I think in the end, my main concern is whether I should go prime or zoom.. If I do go zoom, I will most likely pick up either the 16-35/2.8L or the 17-40/4L...
Well I guess I'll let you guys talk now
Thanks
Sim
