Hi, im new to club snap seeking advice on which lens to get. I had some photography experience when schooling a couple years back.
I will be getting a canon 40D body soon. Im trying to stick buying one lens (2nd hand) only due to tight budget.
Canidates:
17-85 IS USM (abt 400)
18-135 IS (abt 500)
18-200 IS canon (abt 800) or sigma (500-600?)
other suggestions welcomed
my main concern is if i shd forgo the USM of 17-85 and some cash to get more zoom. I might be interested in taking some sports shots too.
And does anyone knows their min. focusing range? Might be adding a close-up filter for macro shots.
Thanks all!!
