You are fast. I copy and paste it wrong...

24-105 F4L IS USM should be item #8, I have added it as #19 at the bottom.

作者: Catpiano 時間: 2010-8-19 18:54

oh .. and I dont see 18-55IS? which is by far the best !!

No way I can put 18-55IS

Just be serious, I don't think Canon user can stand with his/her 18-55IS performance...

Are you kidding me??

I love the 18-55IS a lots, much better then the old one, it is so good that I have 2 of them! I may use my 17-85 and 24-105 more then my 18-55IS, depends on what body to match, 7D matches with the 17-55IS a lots, and it is a great lens, however, 17-55 is too big for 500D/550D, not great balance...

For 1/7 the price of 17-55, 18-55 is is a great lens! (and made in Japan!)

Mine is made in Philippines...

By the way, I try to add that in the list but it's too late. The edit tool of the post has expired.

For those who likes the 18-55IS, s/he will have to vote on the "others" category.

Sorry for the confusion...

How come 24/1.4L is not in the list? That's my pick.

There's a category called "Just Prime"...

SB .. play ha wah ..

I do like the 24L on APC, but still prefer it on the FF/1.3 la.. and it is a bit too big for XXXD !

作者: Look4chrisng 時間: 2010-8-20 14:40

I like 50mm. I pick 35mm 1.8 AFS. That darn thing is crazy sharp and crazy cheap.

Look4chrisng 發表於 2010-8-20 14:40

But none from Canon ma ..

I love the 35 F1.8 AFS a lots, low price, sharp, (even @ 1.8) ok colour, I use it on both DX and FX! (surprise, not much dark corners when wide open, or do ~ 1.1 crop is fine)

Highly recommend!

(I believe Canon one is coming, but wont fit on FF, EF-S only)

作者: lo_pak 時間: 2010-8-20 15:13

That many LYKs are prime fans too...
I do love prime but I usually use mine indoors...
As a walkaround lens I would prefer zoom instead...

作者: Catpiano 時間: 2010-8-21 07:17

Prime is smaller, lighter, and better quality in general, however, cost a lots more!!

(ie, price for 24+28+35+50+85+100 vs 24-105 ... )

回復 14# Catpiano

You must have a broad shoulder to carry that many primes...

For crops, people either carry 21/24, 28/30/35, 50, or 85/100/135...

作者: Look4chrisng 時間: 2010-8-23 09:00

Sorry didn't seen it is only for Canon. Then 17-50 VR from Tamron. I haven't try a VR lens yet, but it opens a lot of creative opportunities.

With VR, can you handhold for 1 sec at the wide end and get sharp pic?

作者: lo_pak 時間: 2010-8-23 09:23

回復 16# Look4chrisng

Rule of thumb - 17mm at at least 1/17 sec.

1 sec. handheld and get sharp image... Haha... You must be talking about a f/1.2 lens...

作者: Look4chrisng 時間: 2010-8-23 09:50

回復 17# lo_pak

your rule is for a regular lens. VR must be somewhat better lor?

No.

And it doesn't matter with VR or IS, F1.2 or not.

1 sec, need tripod + timer/remote for sharp pic.

回復 18# Look4chrisng

Theoretically 8x better. But it all depends, with a guy like me having a pair of shaky hands (I think), having IS/VR I still try to keep my rule of thumb in case I accidentally move...

. From experience the results are quite promising.

For crops you won't go beyond ISO800. With my 40D at ISO 800, I feel like the photo quality degrades quite a lot...

作者: lo_pak 時間: 2010-8-23 11:16

回復 19# Catpiano

I agree, 1 sec. handheld is almost impossible unless you have an abnormal ultra steady pair of hand...

作者: Look4chrisng 時間: 2010-8-24 09:11

;-(

Time to take the tripod out. But my tripod is heavy without quick release.

Or you can wait until ISO6400/12800 is a common feature to all camera...

lo_pak 發表於 2010-8-24 09:42

It is reasonable common now, but usable? not really, do we need it as general public? no, I rather more and more powerful and accurated flashes to come. (in compact size too)

回復 23# lo_pak

hm, I want get low shutter speed ma. High ISO doesn't help much.

作者: Catpiano 時間: 2010-8-24 14:25

Low shutter speed, tripod is the only way ... ( monopod can help, say up to 1/4 sec )

Many VR lens can offer great result up to 1/4 sec too, (ie 16-35) only if you are taking building etc pic.

You are right, should be the other way.

My mistake

, typing too fast and thinking too slow...

作者: BiscottiGelato 時間: 2010-8-30 14:46

Hmm.. I don't know. Sometimes I walk around with a 17-55, someitmes I walk around with a 24 1.4, sometimes with a 11-16...

Depends on what I expect to see. There's no perfect lens, nor a perfect walk around lens. You anticipate your conditions, see how many lenses you can carry (even if it's just the 1 attached), and go from there.

Honestly, I carry my iPhone the most... that's the truly most carried 'walk around lens'
