I'm just entering the dslr world so please forgive me for the newbie question. I am in the process of buying my first dslr and a general lens. I have it down to a 450d and ef-s 17-55m f/2.8 is usm or a 50d andef-s 17-85mm f/4-5.6 is usm.
Both choices will cost me a similar price (currently working in South Korea) but for someone who is a dslr beginner which would be the better choice? My shots will mostly be landscapes, street scenes andindoorphotography (museums where I can't use a flash or tripod)<span style="color: #333333; font-family: Arial;"].
In regards to indoor photography would these lenses be suitable or do better choices come to mind?
Many thanks for any help offered.
