[QUOTE="Danno_RIP, post: 521145, member: 34269"] I am still knew to all this, and have a limited budget, but I will share what conclusions I have come to... I shoot a lot, relatively, because it is good therapy for me. I have a Sigma 18-250 that I keep on my camera mostly because I walk my country road a lot and it is very versatile. I cannot pack a bag when I go for a walk... and changing lenses on the side of the road is just a bit risky. What I have found is that I wish I had two more lens... a super wide angle cause I shoot a lot of views at 18 and wish it was a bit wider something in the 10-20mm range. There is often something I would like to include in the shot but it is not quite wide enough. The other lens is the Tamron 150-600. I want that for Moon shots, and the geese that fly over from the pond and this ONE Red Tail Hawk that purches in the top of a 60 foot Cedar tree that is always JUST out of reach. When I try to get a shot of him I am just a little too close and he is gone... and I am NOT fast enough to track him. When I look at my pictures I have taken I have a lot at 18 and a lot at 250... With the lenses you have what focal length do you find yourself using the most and wanting just a bit more. [/QUOTE]
