Hi all,
I had no idea this forum existed but it looks awesome! I do have a question: I recently purchased the Rebel T6/1300D package that comes with the 18-55 and 75-300 lenses. I'm still on the learning curve with this camera (previously I was using point-and-shoot pocket cameras, and/or video cameras).
My question is, I'll be going back over to Disney World soon and wondered what might be the best lens to take to the parks? I only want to take one lens. Is the 18-55 sufficient, or is there a much better lens that I'd have better luck with? I doubt I'll be taking any telephoto shots, but rather standard and wide-angle shots, as well as action shots.
Any help appreciated! Thanks......
I had a T5, which almost identical to a T6. The T5 simply lacks Wi-Fi.
The first lenses I bought to expand my arsenal were the EF 50mm f/1.8 STM, EF-S 18-135 IS STM, and the EF-S 10-22mm USM. The 50mm taught me the most about photography. The 18-135mm initially became my favorite “walk around” lens, which every photographer should have.
But, the 10-22mm became my favorite lens to use on the T5. It has a focal range that is approximately equivalent to 16-35mm on a full frame DSLR, and Canon makes a professional grade “L” lens with that exact range. In fact, the 10-22mm and the 16-35mm share the same lens hood.
The EF-S 10-18mm is comparable to the EF-S 10-22mm in image quality, but the similarities end there. While the 10-18mm costs half the pride, 10-22mm has a wider aperture and internal focusing, as well as a metal body, instead of plastic.
The very wide aperture EF 50mm f/1.8 STM lens is far and away the best bang for the buck lens in the Canon EF lens lineup. It can teach you a lot about photography.
My advice is the 10-22mm, or the two lens 10-18mm and 50mm lens kit.
