Hey everyone. I am looking to make some new purchases and start to take this hobby more serious. I want to get a tripod and at least one new lens. I am working with a Canon T3i now and the 18/55mm kit lens. I enjoy landscape photography mostly, but want to get into portraits, weddings and maybe some macro for fun.
These are the tripods I am considering
Manfrotto BeFree
Vanguard Alta Pro
These are the lenses
Sigma 10-20mm
Tamron 70-300mm
Canon 50mm
Tamron 90mm Macro
I know each lens serves its own purpose/has its own uses. So I guess I am wondering if these are good lenses for what I want to do, and if there is a more affordable option for any of them (something I doubt). I also considered going used from Amazon on all this stuff to help save some money. If you have to choose just 2 lenses which would they be.
And just to try and get everything answered at once, should I get an external flash, or any filters (I like shooting sunsets/sunrises), lens hoods, etc. Just looking for some basic suggestions for this.
Thanks in advance for your help.
