I don't belong to a camera forum but I know we have a few camera pros on here so figured I'd post here. I have a canon rebel xt DSLR. Currently I have the kit lens (18-55mm EFS), a canon EF 70-200mm 1:4 L lens and a canon EF 50mm 1:2.5 lens. I have minimal knowledge of lenses and such (I used to be smrt, now not so much) and my next lens purchase was going to be a wide angle (its been so long they stopped selling the one I wanted, 17-40mm L, so I gotta start the research again).
Anyhoo, I just went camping for the weekend where I alternated between the kit lens, which is more versatile for my crazy active kids, and my 50mm when they calmed down a little. I can tell the difference in the photos without even looking and am totally in love with the 50mm and want to junk the kit lens. The photos seem sharper and more vivid with the 50mm! However, the 18-55mm gets used the most so I'm thinking about replacing it with something...sharper and more vivid, lol! Is it worth it? Is there something "better" out there for what I need or is this pretty much it for that range?
Suggestions welcome
