    Re: whats lenses do I have to buy?

    Hi Jeany,


    You do not have to buy the kit lens. The 50mm f/1.8 and 55-250mm f/4.5-5.6 will work just fine. Although you may find that you want something wider. 50mm on the 450D is not very wide....

    Re: RAW: Keep or Delete?

    I absolutely keep my RAW files. Throwing away a RAW file is like throwing away a negative.

    Re: 24-70 vs 24-105 (Great Debate!?)

    Pretty much my exact experience. I waffled back and forth between both of these fine lenses before finally settling on the 24-70. Like was mentioned earlier, the 24-105 may be the better lense "if it...

    Re: Keep Canon 17-85 or replace with...

    That's funny you say that! I do have the 70-200L f/4, but was thinking maybe I should trade up to the 2.8. Probably won't happen anytime soon as I've been on a lens buying spree lately (the 35L,...

    Re: Keep Canon 17-85 or replace with...

    Well, I pulled the trigger on a 24-70 tonight. I struggled with the decision between the 24-70 and 24-105 for my walkaround. But in the end, for me, I don't think the extra range from 70-105 is worth...

    So optically, are the 24-70 and 24-105 equivalent (image quality-wise)? Or is one sharper than the other? If they are equal then I thnk I might lean more towards the 24-105 because of the reach (less...
