Hi based on my same question and advices here i understand we would have two options to set 70d gear for covering all peruses: first crop-lens-combo including 50 f1.4 + 70-200 f4L is + 60 f2.8 macro. Option 2: 24-70 f4L is + 70-200 f4L is + 100 f2.8 macro. Some professionals believe that ff lenses are not responding very well on apc crop cameras like 70d and some say its no problem you can us ff lenses on 70d just you need add a wide lens with lower focal range 10-20mm to your gear. And still even i am confusing Smiley Happy any pro advice?

don't i need any wide aperture in my set like f1.4 or 1.8 or 2.8? since these apertures are in some lenses 40, 50, and 85 mm which will be 1.6x on my aps-c camera, as i understand you want to say that i need in my lens-set, a lens with minimum "mm" like 10-22 although the aperture is 3.5. right?

Except for a few fairly specific applications, wide-angle lenses aren't of much use indoors. They distort a lot, and they subtend an angle that most speedlites can't handle. Since they're used mainly outdoors, they don't have to be very fast.

hi there, with respect, i become more sure why you recommended me for ef-s 10-22 instead of 100 f2.8, since its wider range,
and probably macro mode on 24-70 f4.
do i need in my gear, any lens with faster aperture like 50mm at f1.4 usm or 85mm at f1.8 or else?

Thank u Bob for your kindness -:

hi, pls dont shout at me and dont be angry with me 😞
i am going to buy a caonon 24-105 f4 based on your recomendation as said: "The EF 24-105mm f4 L is the best buy in the Canon line" (even on APS-C cameras like my 70d). its relly gives me stunning sharpness!

but since i am shooting indoor also, this lens on my 70d will be: 38.4-106mm f6.4 shall i chose other lense like 50mm 1.4 or else?

or i should trust something like Tamron 16-300 made for APS-C as all-in-one (With less sharpness)?

please advice me
kind regards
