This will be my first DSLR camera as before this I was using a Canon S3 IS which is currently at Canon having a new lens/zoom fitted after it went keplunk on me.
Anyway, I have done lots of research about the lenses that you can buy with the camera and all say to skip the lens kits and buy some decent glass. How do I tell the difference between a good quality lens and a cheapie? Is it all in the price? I have been looking at the Tamron AF 18-250mm F3.5-6.3 Di 2 LD Aspherical [IF] Macro. It has a wide angle as well as telephoto capabilities all in the one lens. This lens costs about the same price as the camera body. Does anyone out there in proshow land use one of these lenses or have any other recommendations?
BTW...the Canon eos 400D is also known as the Canon Kiss or Rebel xti.
Does anyone else on the forum use this camera?
