1 Answer

Answer :

answer:55–250 will give you a wider angle and less telephoto. 75–300 will give you greater telephoto and less wide angle. The lower the first number, the wider the field of view. The higher the second number, the closer you can bring the image. But, you also have to take into consideration the diaphragm opening of the of the lens to account for depth of field. http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/fototech/htmls/depth.html I would get two lenses. An 18–55 and a 55–300. This will cover most of your photography needs for a beginner. If you can’t afford the two lenses, most Canon cameras have a 55mm lens that comes with the camera. Then get the 75–300. You will find, most of the time, you will not use the full 300. Some lenses become a bit soft at the 300mm range unless you use a lens like this. http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/ef_lens_lineup/ef_28_300mm_f_3_5_5_6l_is_usm You will notice the price is high because the optics are much better as compared to, http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/consumer/products/cameras/ef_lens_lineup/ef_75_300mm_f_4_5_6_iii Since you are a beginner, taking a couple classes in photography will go a long way in helping you enjoy the hobby much more. Or get a book like this to get you started. http://www.amazon.com/Beginners-Photography-Guide-Chris-Gatcum/dp/1465408452/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1401375024&sr=1-1&keywords=beginners+guide+to+photography

Description : Photographers: Can you tell me what difference between a 50mm 1.8 and 50mm 2.5 lens for Canon?
