The suggested Canon lens had a $800 price tag I believe, but it’s next on the list. I purchased the new Canon nifty fifty f/1.8 and for now, I’ll quit with lens purchases and hope I’m covered for Iceland and other summer vacations. So I thank you all for the clarifications.Īfter freaking out I had a broke lens because of the constant grinding IS noise, I took some nice photos with that lens. Today I found a million vids on why that’s wrong haha. He, among a few others, planted the x1.6 aperture notion. I watched many Tony Northrop reviews and tutorials. When you mount the lens on your 80D does it not report f4 ? Case closed. Nonsense, don't waste your time reading that person again. I like and encourage the idea of the Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens however your kit lens will work. It is still a bit short for hard core birding, however. The 70-200mm should be a nice lens for the Zoo. It is FF on your camera, meaning what you see in your viewfinder is exactly the photo you will get. Just go use and learn and enjoy your new lens. But don't feel that you've wasted your money you have a fine camera and a fine exploring Youtube. Others in the forum will tell you about other choices, so pay attention to them too. Canon refurbs have a good reputation and come with a good warranty. It's popular and has been around for a while, so you might be able to find a refurbished copy at the Canon on-line store. The EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS would be an excellent choice. So turn your attention to finding an affordable "walkaround" lens for your trip. It's great for pictures of distant mountains and glaciers, not so much for walking around the countryside photographing houses and barns. That said, a 70- 200mm lens is a fairly powerful telephoto on an 80D, and you probably wouldn't want it to be your only lens on your trip to Iceland. If you don't own a FF camera, that information is probably of no interest to you. To put it in simplest terms, it says that your lens is more of a telephoto on your 80D than it is on a FF camera. All the 1.6 factor tells you is that to get the same angle of view on a full-frame camera, you'd need a lens 1.6 times as long. The 1.6 "crop factor" has nothing to do with aperture your lens is still an f/4.Īt any zoom setting, your lens, used on your 80D, will give you a certain "angle of view". But I don’t understand what lenses to buy with crop sensors. Doesn’t that really limit the type of photos you can take? The camera is super nice, but was this like buying a mI’d range car and putting super expensive hubcaps and speakers, etc on it? I was under the impression that a camera is only as good as the lens you’re shooting through because the camera doesn’t matter, the lens matters. Low light photographs will be impossible or what? And 112-320mm zoom sounds like super zoom now. The f/2.8 was too expensive for me, not to mention I’m not a pro, but wanted a good zoom lens that will last and hold up to years of abuse.įast forward 2 days and hours of YouTube videos later, and am wondering if what I’ve done is a complete waste of money, seeming as though this f/4 will never be an f/4 if I have to multiple focal length AND aperture by 1.6, which gives me f/6.4. Did research on it and saw how amazing it was. Going to Iceland and knew the kit lens (18-55mm) was subpar (right? Or no?) and wanted something phenomenal.
