Hi,
I recently purchased Canon 550D DSLR with 18-55 MK II kit lens. :)
I now wish to purchase lens. Am new with photography.
My budget's around 30-35K, looking to purchase it in the next two months.
I like shooting portrait, some marco maybe and little scenary too.
Would like your expert advice on which len should i go for.
I Had looked into Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM. Need Advise, thanks ppl.

28-135 will not fullfill any of ur interest fields :) its not a fast lens to get good bokeh in portraits, its not a macro lens and 24mm is just not wide enough for landscapes, ur 18-55 is better

Bro just get Tamron 90mm 2.8 for Macro ...it cost around 18-20k
get canon 50mm 1.8 for portraits ...cost 6k learn how to take portraits if u feel u wont be able to use prime lens for portraits then we can think of a alternative like Tamron 17-50 2.8 non VC which cost 22k

for taking scenery u better use ur 18-55 for now and save for a wide angle lens later like a Sigma 10-20 or tokina 11-16

Fulfill as much as possible from the following options:


a. 70-200 F4
b. 70-200 F2.8
c. 50mm 1.8

of a and b, look for what fits in your budget, and stick to Canon.
