Good lens for car photography?

[-GDconcepts-]

The Depth of field is going to be controlled by your F/stop. The 18-55mm kit lens is great for the money. I'd only shoot between 18mm - 22mm with that lens. Look at the Tamron 11mm-18mm is a great lens. What kind of effect are you wanting? If you're wanting the crazy "jdm fisheye" look, then a 10mm is the best way. The closer you stand, the more of an effect you'll get. I personally think it's a somewhat gay and very over played effect. If you are wanting very clean lens with good depth of field. Then I would suggest Tamron 17mm-35mm 2.8-4. But, the the 10mm is nice for a lot more then just automotive photography.
