Hi
I'm Nathan and predominantly photo live bands, bands, portraits at functions and events, the occasional support photographer at weddings, and prefer my photography to center around people and events.
Most of these events are late in the afternoon or at night and my kit lenses and camera sensor just can't keep up.
I'm not looking to go into full professional work. I do it more as a hobby, and occasionally get paid.
I love the Olympus due to the lightness and portability, so don't really want to switch systems.
I've got a budget of around $500 AUD ($400 USD i think at the moment).
My main contender at the moment seems to be the Zuiko ED 14-35mm (28-70) f2 but that is pretty expensive.
Should I sell my kit lenses and consolidate into a more versatile lens for what i'm intending to do (shoot people)?
Am I looking at the complete wrong focal length at the moment?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
