PLEASE HELP!!! IM A DSLR VIRGIN!!!





Any chance the Sigma 18 - 200 and 18 - 250 and 10 - 20 f3.5 may be reviewed..?





Im especially interested in a functionable lens for the 7D for use with video..


For a 1.6 crop camera, with video function, the following is important:


A large zoom, either one lens or two.. I was thinking either of the above Siggy's or the new Canon 15 - 85mm or 18 - 135mm


I need IS on my lenses with a longer than 24 focal length


Fast Apertures are important, especially at a standard length and long length. I was thinking the Sigma 35mm 1.4 prime? and the Canon 50mm 1.4.


Lastly A WIDE.... Sigma 10 - 20 f3.5..





Giving Me:


Sigma 10 - 20mm f3.5 (not reviewed)


Sigma 35mm f1.4


Canon 50mm f1.4


Canon 18 - 135mm f3.5 - 5.6 IS (not reviewed yet, but package deal with the 7d)


Nothing Fantastic, but bearing in mind I want to shoot video as much as photograph, so I thought cover my bases now, and go expensive when I get a full frame..


how does that sound for a starter kit arsenal..? One problem I have is three of those lenses are exclusively 1.6 crop.. so if i upgrade to the 5d3 one day, I will have problems. I would LOVE L lenses, theyre just way too pricey... Otherwise I would add the 24 - 70 f2.8 and the 70 - 200 f2.8





BTW this website is FANTASTIC and very helpful. You have taught me TONS!!
