[QUOTE="CG_Media, post: 65675, member: 10079"] What Evan said is what concerns me about a kit lens like that. Judging by your pictures, you don't have optimal lighting to use and even though you did great, I know that it's something you'll struggle with. I run into the same things myself. Especially last night: [IMG]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/17372383/Untitled Export/Summer Fun!/test/_DSC1566.jpg[/IMG] Around dusk the pictures I was getting at this event were amazing (17-50 2.8 Sigma), but when I had to go by the arena lighting, I had to work on really hard to get the images to come out and even then they weren't that great. [IMG]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/17372383/Untitled Export/Summer Fun!/test/_DSC1963.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/17372383/Untitled Export/Summer Fun!/test/_DSC2115.jpg[/IMG] Client was happy with the artsy feel to it, but I knew what the problem was. just didn't have a fix. I have flashes that can reach that far, but around animals, quiet and non-intrusive is the key. I just fear that a kit lens that's going to limit your aperture at the upper end of the zoom range is going to murder you when you need the extra stops. [/QUOTE]
