![]() ![]() I have some photos of dogs where their eyes are in focus, but their ears and the tip of their nose are not.Ĭanon also makes the EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM, an alternative that’s a little wider (24mm), not quite as fast (f/2.8), but much less expensive, at around $130. There are no real downsides with this lens, other than you need to be careful when shooting wide open since the depth of field is far, far narrower than you’d expect. Although I replaced it with the 18-35mm you’ll read about next, I still miss it. The similarly-specced predecessor was my first favorite lens, and I used it for some amazing headshots and night photos. It’s also super fast, at f/1.4, meaning you can shoot in exceptionally low light. With the 90D’s 1.6x magnification factor, this is close to the 50mm lenses of yore. A combination of aspherical and special low-disperison elements combines to give very low flare and little distortion. It offers great value for money, for a lens with this range and a maximum f/2.8 aperture. One of these (or the Sigma) paired with one of the prime lenses mentioned below would cover you for just about everything.įor me, the 30mm F1.4 DC HSM Art is the best option for a fast “walking around” lens that will capture the action. The Sigma 14-24mm f/2.8 covers a useful range of wide- to ultra-wide focal lengths. Still, these are excellent lenses for most people in an wide number of situations. Also, I found that the pictures I got weren’t quite as good with the 16-300mm as I got with the Sigma. You’ll almost certainly need to use a tripod or crank the ISO. That f/6.3 is going to really restrict you in lower light situations. The downsides for both lenses are the same as the Sigma. If telephoto is more your thing, the 18-400mm F/3.5-6.3 DI-II VC HLD is a remarkable zoom range and pretty much as good are you’re going to find in an DSLR lens. That extra 2mm is noticeable, and great if you shoot a lot of interiors or landscapes. On specs alone, the Tamron is superior to the Sigma. ![]() I owned the 16-300mm F/3.5-6.3 Di-II VC PZD for about a year, which replaced my Sigma 18-300mm that got stolen in Italy. Tamron has several variations on the Sigma superzoom lens.
