Hey guys,
I'm currently using a Nikon D50 with an 18-200mm 3/3.5-5.6 VR lens. I'm feeling its limitations and need an upgrade.
I'm planning on a Canon EOS 5D Mark II. I need some help searching for lenses...
- Lens needs to be compatible with a full chip. How do I search for this feature?
- I like that I don't have to switch lenses right now, but I'm also not happy that my current lens doesn't give crisp focus on the extremes (it really struggles between 160-200mm). I want to keep to two zoomable lenses that will work in most situations. What ##mm range do you recommend?
- I appreciated Nikon's VR feature. Is the Canon "IS" essentially vibration reduction? Is it in-lens or in-camera?
I'm shooting weddings for $$, but my ultimate goal is international photojournalism. I'm currently volunteering for my school's newspaper, shooting sports and such. I'm a student, so I don't have an endless pocket here, but I want to invest in some good glass that can be resold when I'm done with it.
Thanks!
