So I am putting together a starter kit and would really appreciate any advice that you can offer. I originally wanted to go with the 5D, but was persuaded by another forum member to start with a cheaper body, and spend the bucks on good glass. As long as I get EF lenses I can always switch out the body later.
I'm not completely satisfied with what I've been reading about the 28-135mm lens particularly regarding its poor quality with full-frame cameras, but I want a mid-range lens preferably with IS and figure I can always sell it later with the body as a kit lens. However, if anyone has any recommendations for a mid-range lens, I would love to hear.
The camera will be used for a variety of settings including a studio setting, social events, nature, night.
Also are there any recommendations on cases for my camera & lenses? It would be great for it to fit the body with the battery grip and mid-range lens.
Has anyone tried out the Lensbaby 3G on this body?
In what situations is an auxillary flash needed? How is the onboard flash?
Overall, does anyone see anything missing from this starter kit?
Thanks and I appreciate all your replies.
