By ‘do everything length’, you mean 35mm with a crop sensor, right? Which is like 56mm in reality

Any other places you know of that I can ask at?

Thanks!

Thanks!

Thanks!

What EF lens that is cheaper do you think would compare in quality to Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary?

Not much else to say but thank you! You’ve basically given me a quick tour of the photography world and I hope others can get as many insights as I have 🙂

I’ve come to a conclusion that I’m either getting the stock lens (the RF-S 18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM) or this sigma one (the Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary).

But as a beginner, I’d still love to ask you: It’s five times the price of the stock lens, but does the quality improve proportionally? Would the pictures generally also be about 5x better, in some way at least?

Reasonable advice all around!

Out of curiosity, do you personally think Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary is worth five times the price of the stock lens? I mean: does the quality improve proportionally?

Would the pictures generally also be about 5x better than the kit RF-S 18-45mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM?

Thanks for helping thoroughly!

Also, what do you think about EF-S 17-55 f/2.8 IS? I was told it’s one of the best lenses for ASP-C cameras in general. Would it be great with an adapter?

I’m talking about that great Sigma lens that is Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8 DC DN Contemporary. I feel like I’d love to have it but since it and the camera don’t have the Image Stabilization, it might be an obstacle, what do you think?

I’m not sure how much I’d be shooting in the dark, but probably quite a bit. Is it a big deal overall in your view?

Does Canon RF 24-105mm f/4-7.1 IS STM have better image quality overall compared to RF-S 18–150mm f/3.5–6.3 IS STM?

Thank you. Great recommendations! What one or a few important things do you think I’d not have access to with the stock 18-45 lens?

So the Sigma lens that is of high image quality but it doesn’t have Image Stabilization. Would that be a concern with R50 without IBIS?

And is the 18-150mm lens much better than the basic kit 45 one?

I’ve also been recommended a relatively cheap Sigma lens that is of high image quality but it doesn’t have Image Stabilization. Would that be a concern with R50 without IBIS?

Thanks, great insights. Could you recommend one or a few prime lenses for 600usd or so? For R50. And is it worth upgrading to a full frame camera or would R50 be great for a long time in photography in general?

Awesome advice, thank you so much.

One more thing: I’ve noticed you’ve recommended lenses without Image Stabilization, isn’t that very important to get for R50? since it lacks IBIS

So is the RF-S 18–150mm f/3.5–6.3 IS STM ‘bad quality’? Is it worse than the kit lens? How much worse is it than the $2k lenses?
