Additional Lenses Suggestions/Recommendations

Cantrell — Tue, 12 Nov 2024 12:42:04 GMT

All,

I have a R10 with RF-s 18-45mm, RF-s 18-150mm, RF100-400mm, RF-s 10-18mm, and the Sigma 50mm Art. I like to take picture of my dogs both inside and outside, grandchildren, pictures of the family at the family gatherings, at the beach, birds flying at the beach and walking, and just when the mood hits me.

Wondering if anybody has suggestions about additional lens or lenses that I might consider purchasing. Thanks to everyone in advance.

Regards

"I think you have enough lenses."

Agree, use what you have until something doesn't work then look for additional gear.

I am sure Canon would love for you to buy more lenses, but you have not really identified a need. The only thing I see lacking is a Macro lens, but that is not on your list of needs.

Since you have a nice variety of lenses already you must be suffering from LBA (lens buying addiction) or GAS (gear acquisition syndrome), or you really are not impressed by a lens. If the latter is true maybe upgrading if possible. Or maybe a different range of a zoom, or another prime. If you can afford it there is nothing wrong with more lenses, or even another camera. As mentioned before you don't seem to have a macro, there are also fisheye lenses and lenses longer than 400mm. Whatever you do, have fun. Myself, I'm a newby to Canon and only have an RF24-105 and RF200-800. That 200-800mm is what brought me aboard and I love it.

All,

Thank you for your responses. I am probably suffering from LBA and GAS. Maybe looking for a new shinny penny.

This made me chuckle. Did his wife ask you to say that, John? 😂
