i guys. Coming from a 1200D with 18-55mm kit lens, I'd like to update now that I have the chance. I use my camera mostly for travel, landscape, street, and portrait photography. I also like doing food photography, always shoot in manual. What I'm looking for in a new camera is overall better performance, focusing and low-light abilities. I also want a vary-angle screen, as I really miss that right now.
The 80D seems like a good choice, but I've been having a hard time with lenses. Particularly whether I should get a zoom or a couple of primes. So far, these are my options, but I'm not sure whether they're any good or not:
Canon 80D with:
--> Canon EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM
--> Canon EF-S 35mm f/2.8 Macro IS STM
--> Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM

"... MTF charts might not tell the whold story,..."
They are misleading and most people don't even know what they are looking at or how to interpret it. The bad thing is when you do understand one, it has little to no relationship to how the lens performs in the real world use. An unneeded part of photography for sure.
