Hey guys, I just had a few questions before I put money into something like this. I am pretty much set on the 350D, as the price is good, and I have an EOS 650 with two lenses, which I can also use w/ the 350D. One is the original lense that came with the 650 (EF 35-80mm f/4-5.6) and the other is the EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6.
My biggest debate right now, is if I should get the 350D with the kit lense, or if I should just buy the body and buy the 50mm f/1.8 lense. I already have a standard zoom and telephoto lense, so maybe I should get a lense that'll let me shoot pretty fast in low light (and because the lense is very inexpensive).
I know many will tell me to ditch the kit lense and buy the 50mm lense. My concern here is if my original 650 lense is up to par to the kit lense. Even if it isn't, is it worth buying the kit lense?
Another concern is the type of photography I do, which is mostly macro, but I think the 50mm lense will broaden that horizon for me.
So what do you think I should do? Please give me some suggestions, as I have done a search but I haven't found the answers I'm specifically looking for, except for the fact that every EOS owner should have the 50mm lense. Any sample pictures with the 50mm lense would be greatly appreciated also! (w/o post editing).
