Canon lens swap

**clairenceh** · October 2nd, 2012 07:39 PM

Mga sir ask ko lang po kung ok ba makipag swap ng lens. 18-55mm (kit lens) + 50mm f1.8 ko = to 2nd hand Sigma 18-200mm f3.5-6.3 DC OS. I don't need the f1.8 naman. Hindi na magadd ng cash. Go na ba ako? Thanks!

No. sabi mo nga di ka naman photographer. di din ako photographer pero ok na yang lens mo imo. ganda gamitin yang 50mm sir. pag-praktisan/experimentuhan mo sir for sure masisiyahan ka dyan. bili ka na lang ng flash.

you got an instant walkaround lens in 18-200. it's a great swap actually. pero bakit pumayag yung may-ari ng 18-200? lugi sya dun. just make sure walang problema yung lens

Kulang kasi talaga yung 55/50mm sakin e. Sulit na ba yun kapag nakipag swap ako?

para sa akin mas ok pa rin yung kit lens at yung 50mm f1.8. pang walkaround lens ko din yang 50mm and maganda ang kuha di pa mabigat dalhin. kung satisfied siya sa sigma 18-200mm bakit pa niya i-swap at babalik sa kit lens at 50mm? buti pa kung 70-200mm ng canon yan at kahit magdagdag ka pa ng bayad...

Wag mo bitawan yung 50mm mo.

Ako meron nang 18-200mm pero bili pa rin ako ng 50mm f1.8 for portraitures.

Thanks sa mga nagreply.

Makikipag swap na ako then i'll buy a 50mm lens ulit next month. Sayang kasi baka makuha pa ng iba mura na eh.

have you seen the condition of his sigma 18-200? the matte texture of the sigma gets peeled off after some time and both sigma and tamron have higher chance of having inaaccurate focus. Test focus of the lens first if it is accurate, but the sigma 18-200 has good reviews.

buti pumayag makipagpalit since the kit lens and 50mm could be bought at less than 10k total. the sigma 18-200 is around 20k

baka may catch...

hmm.. 18-200mm..
pros:
walk around lense.

cons:

too heavy
- not good for low light
when use the maximum focal lengths it become soft

in my own opinion..
I still go for kitlens + 50mm

pag di mo kailangan ng 50mm.. bilhin ko na lang. (opss nikon pala ako hehehe)

or benta mo yan lense then go to 24-70mm f2.8 gonna love constant f
