Hello all. I am asking for opinions, experiences, or suggestions regarding what lens I should start aiming toward. I shoot a lot of different things but mostly landscapes, my kids, and sometimes I shoot some events. What I am looking for is an 'all around' lens. After playing with each of the lens I currently have (50mm f/1.8 II, 18-55 kit, 55-250mm) and discovering what I like to shoot I think the 24-70mm focal range is what will work best for me. The 24-70mm f/2.8 excites me because of the f/2.8 throughout the focal range but is it really worth the 600-700 more than the 24-70 f/4? I would love to hear from people who have used both or just pure knowledge suggestion. Also are there cheaper alternates from Sigma or Tamron that perform just as well? Thanks in advance.
