Hello All,
I am new at Dslr field and very into it recently. After doing all the research on line I am going to have Canon 5D but still not very sure what kinds of lens I should start with.
Here are my primary objects will shot,
1) kids / family picures (indoor and outdoor both) --> 70%
2) landscaping --> 20%
3) flowers / birds : close look...
I knew here will be the best place to have the advice !!!!
By the way .. I have budget around NT$100,000.00 for the lens.(for 1~2 lens) ...
If I won't able to get the good quality of pictures at this price range I will able to throw in 50,000.00 more...
Thanks in advance...
Flower and close up could be covered by a Macro lense. Plenty of exellent choice on the market. Many friends of mine has EF 100mm F2.8 Macro. I heared that Sigma 150mm F2.8 Macro also has very outstanding optical quality.
Shooting birds, well, is gonna cost you. I suggest you start a separate thread with what kind of bird you're thinking of shooting. I'm sure a 400mm will be your minimum if you're thinking what I was thinking, and that is expensive.
Finally, if you're in the U.S. check out B&H to see if you can still take advantage of their promotional price. Check out the bottom of this thread:

It does look like that most of you highly recommend 24-70 mm f2.8 L . Since I will have big portion of my work focusing on my kids,he is 6 months now and grow fast, and family this one seems the first len that I should have.
If shooting birds / flowers require mature skill and cost a big buck I might defer this option.
How about landscaping( day and night)? Which one will be your first pick for now?
thanks again guys...
