I finally jumped on the wagon and got the digital SLR that I have wanted for a while now. The package I got comes with a 28-90 mm F/3.3-5.6 lens.
I don't need a whole lot of lens, just looking for what I would need to round out the camera. I figure the one that comes with it will do for general stuff. I just want to cover the range, especially to help capture my wedding and honeymoon in Jamacia, the big reason I bought this camera.
What would be a good quality lens or two that would compliment what I already have? You could add a lens for long range shots, something like the Nikon 70-210mm or the 70-300mm, UV filters to protect your lenses against the sand & spray and perhaps dorky sun shades to cut down on flare and preserve contrast in the bright sun light. Oh, and plenty of storage for the trip - do you have enough memory cards?
After that, you're looking at expansions and upgrades that might not be worth the investment. Things like a tripod, a wider lens (with 28mm as your current widest, you might find yourself backing up a lot), a low light lens such as the 50mm F1.8, a flash, and so forth.
Best wishes, and have a great trip! |
