I want to get a new general purpose zoom lens to upgrade from the 18-55mm kit lens that came with my Canon Rebel XT. I'd like to stay in the sub-$500 range if possible.
I currently have a sigma 70-300mm that I am happy with so i don't need anymore that 70mm but some overlap wouldn't be a bad thing. I would like to go to at least 18mm at the wide end if that's possible without giving up too much in quality
Within the next year I hope to upgrade to a newer body but will likely stay with a crop sensor.
So far I am looking at:
Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM (likely out of my price range)
Sigma 17-70mm f/2.8-4 DC Macro OS HSM
Sigma 18-125mm f/3.5-5.6 AF DC OS HSM
I am open to consider any suggestions, these are just the 3 that meet my criteria that i have found so far.
Thanks
