UPDATE!!!! See comment at the bottom.
So am am ready to spend a healthy amount of cash on a lens or two. My budget is $1000 for one or two lenses.
Here is my basic criteria for the lenses:
1. decent low light abilities
2. fast
3. sharp
I am novice photographer and shoot everything from sports (hockey, soccer, basketball, skateboarding, snowboarding, etc..), landscapes, close ups, to, nature/animals. I know there is not one lens that can do this all but at least point me in the right direction. One more thing, I do not need a telephoto lens because the university paper I shoot for has a 70-200 Canon L lens which I can borrow whenever I please.
The only one that I've been considering is the Sigma 10-20mm (not canon due to cost ) This would help me with nature and landscapes.
I also looked at 10-17mm Tokina fisheye because I live in Vermont and there is a huge snowboarding culture that loves the fisheye effect.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :hug::
