SGC$: 1,491.40 Bank: 0.00 Total SGC$: 1,491.40 | Hi all..... I'm new in photography.... Need to learn and know more things about lens.... Can anyone recomend which kind of lens to use when I need to take photo of a bird that's around 50m away? Or maybe some other objects like in weddings that's normaly max 5-15m away but need a wide angle 1..... Currently I'm using a Cannon 400D and the kit lens that comes with it.... |

SGC$: 1,467.72 Bank: 0.00 Total SGC$: 1,467.72 | For photographing birds (not in the sky), a 80-200mm lens should enough for DSLRs. For wedding photography, a 17-40 would be fine. ![]() To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater.

SGC$: 1,467.72 Bank: 0.00 Total SGC$: 1,467.72 | 80-200 lens is a tele lense. I don't know what lense photographers use to take aerial photography. You should google and read up on photography basics before buying any lense. Don't spend on lenses that you don't need. ![]() To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater.

SGC$: 1,467.72 Bank: 0.00 Total SGC$: 1,467.72 | You need to read up more on photography to understand what you need to shoot what you want. There are many brands of 80-200 lenses. For me, I like the Sigma 80-200 HSM f2.8. It's just a preference. Around 1-2k region. ![]() ![]() To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater.

SGC$: 1,467.72 Bank: 0.00 Total SGC$: 1,467.72 | Check out clubsnap.com. The people there are more knowledgeable. Some of them buy more gears than they shoot. ![]() ![]() To view links or images in signatures your post count must be 10 or greater.
