Hey,
I shoot mainly with a Canon 60D and do mostly video (I'd say 70/30 video)
I was looking at possibly upgrading my 50mm lens, but I can't find a lens within my price range for that focal length that I think would be worthy of an upgrade to and am thinking of purchasing another lens all together (putting the money towards a Canon 70-200 f4 IS or Sigma 70-200 f2.8, yes it's more expensive but I would get value out of this purchase in that I don't have an equivalent focal distance).
My question regarding the two lenses in the title is, apart from the extra stop, do you think there is a noticeable difference between the 50mm F1.8 and the Sigma at 50mm? I shoot a lot of video, and at 50mm the Sigma has the added benefit of image stabilization.
I'm thinking I'd be better off saving up for the zoom lens and making do with the Sigma and possibly the Canon f1.8 if I really need to extra stop.
Also, any suggestions or comments on the Canon 70-200 F4 IS vs. the Sigma 70-200 F2.8?
