What about shooting crystals with a Canon EOS 40D 17 85? Or is 17 40 better?

It is best to use 100mm macro, thinking that the focusing distance of 17-85 and 17-40 is too far, not suitable for shooting such very small objects, unable to show details, and you need a small studio, 2 lights, on the **, a special lamp for shooting small objects, about a set of about 100, the reason for using it is because you can not let the object have extra shadows, better performance of details, and then you need a tripod, because the lens does not have an anti-shake function, you have to use a tripod to fix. We hope you are satisfied.

Canon has a total of 5 macro heads, leaving aside the top macro 180mm, super macro 65mm, and 50mm that can only shoot 1:, only the famous 100 micro (and non-full-frame lenses) remain.

There is only one option that can be used:

Canon EF100mm. The latest**3680 yuan.

The minimum focusing distance of 17-85 and 17-40 is relatively large, and it does not express the beauty of crystal details

In terms of image quality, 17-40 is generally better, but it doesn't necessarily fit your subject, the aperture is not wide enough, and the focal length is on the narrow side.

You can consider a 100mm macro lens.

Canon 100 Macro, or Dead Horse 105 Macro Tamron 90 Macro, 3 heads can be done with more, and the last 2 friends are 1000

First of all, it is not called taking pictures, it is called photography!

Hahahaha,40d+17-85 is a bit expensive,If you have no problem with the economy,Of course it's a good choice,Focal length from wide angle to portrait,No problem,But 40D is not a full camera to multiply the focal length is the final focal length,So your 1785 actual focal length is 28-135,It's also good。

A suggestion to you, the 450D and the 18-200, all-rounder head. The ** of the 450d will not be lowered anymore, and it is about to be delisted, but it is enough for novices.

This machine is still very cost-effective, you can consider, 17-85 lens is enough for beginners, the focal length is relatively moderate, and there are anti-shake and ultrasonic motor focusing, which is very suitable for beginners, you can also add another 50 This head is only more than 600.

40D belongs to the mid-range model, the workmanship performance is very good, I bought it at the beginning like you, it is also 40D, and now the cost performance is quite high. Personally, I think that the head with 17-85 has poor workmanship and poor imaging, which affects mood and confidence. However, the focal length is suitable for beginners, and it is still very convenient to travel.

If you want to learn photography, it is recommended to give up this head, you can play with the prime first, feel the charm of SLR + large aperture focus, and the fixed focus can cultivate your concept of the relationship between the focal length and the **. Like the 50 head shot I said upstairs, the effect is very good, and when I feel it, I will know what lens I need.

I'm done with P's house.,In my opinion,Add another 50.,It's enough to get started.,But,It's just a bit expensive.。

If you want to save money, you can have three options.

No Money Set Pentax K20D + 18-55 + 50-200 6000

Pentax K20D + 18-45 + 50-200 Money Set Pentax K20D + 18-50 + 50-200 focal length is all 6000-8000.

When you learn it and have money, you will go directly to the third princess.

This configuration is no problem, but if there is no original plot, I recommend the combination of 40D + Sigma 18-200mm DC OS, the focal length is more practical, and the imaging is not bad, you think about it.

Very good, now**It's not expensive, and there is time for the landlord to go to buy digital 365 days a day** (365daygo) to see.

Buy early, buy early, good early.

It is now discontinued.

** Instead of falling, it will rise.

Licensed goods **7k more.

17-85 is generally sufficient.

If you have more money, get a 70-200 f4lis

March and April are the digital off-season...

To correct you, your standard equipment is not to indicate the lens sold with the machine when it is in the factory, if it is I can tell you for sure, yes.

Yes, both the 40D and 50D sets are this lens.

When buying a DSLR camera, you don't have to have a set recommended by the merchant, you should configure the lens according to your work needs.

The SLR machine is to realize the ** of the CMOS through the shutter opening and closing, and the DC is realized by powering on the CCD, and its opening sound is simulated, so the SLR machine like 40D cannot shoot video, and the DC can always be ** as long as the CCD is powered on, that is, the video.

SLR machines don't have a video function.,The most harmful thing is just to realize the animation.,It's still a little bit away from the video.,But it's estimated that it's not too far.

1. It mainly depends on what you shoot, which is the basic condition for you to choose a lens.

2. The effect of anti-shake is not the same as that without anti-shake.

105 is more practical (everyday).

40 is a wide-angle lens, you can shoot landscapes.

The 24-105 performance of the documentary, indoor and outdoor ball was better than the 17-40.

5. Not wide enough to go on the full frame.

In fact, the main problem is the budget.

On a certain budget, the 17-40 and 24-105 lenses focus on different aspects. In terms of focal length alone, the 24-105 does not have a wide angle on a machine like 40D, which is not suitable for shooting large scenes or landscapes. The 17-40 is relatively suitable, with a converted focal length of 27-64 on the 40d, and the telephoto segment is slightly insufficient, but it can barely meet the needs of daily shooting.

If you must choose one of these two lenses, then you should choose 17-40, and when adding lenses in the future, it is better to choose from the focal length after 40 to avoid repetition. In such a demand, you can choose Tamron.

The 17-50 stabilization version also has a constant wide aperture.

If you do not plan to increase the lens in the future, then you can consider the Canon 18-200, one lens is enough. On the side of the factory, there are also lenses like Tamron's 18-270 with a large zoom ratio to choose from, or with image stabilization. I have one, the imaging is OK, it's very convenient to travel or something.

The 24105 works well on full width.

1740 This seafood head, the individual differences are too great.

According to the needs of lz, it is recommended that 18-55, Xiaobai.

PS: Don't underestimate the strength of 1855, f8 is even better than 1740.

The concept is the same, choose one of the two to recommend 17-40, and avoid repetition with the head in the future, and the telephoto can use 70-200F4, and it is recommended that Tenglong is new.

First of all, you can't say that 40D** is the same as 450D, and it can't be said that 40D is not a mid-range machine.

So in terms of the fuselage alone, the 40D is still higher than the D90 half-gear.

Secondly, neither of the lenses you mentioned is suitable for pure portraits, because the aperture is not wide enough, and it is difficult to separate the portrait from the background.

17-40L standard scenery head, full F4 aperture, good color, portrait in general, but patting humanities is good (environmental portrait), workmanship is okay, of course** is not expensive.

16-85, a little cheaper than 17-40L, the lens of the film era, and 17-40L is different.

It is recommended to shoot 40D+17-40L to shoot landscape and environmental portraits (humanities).

One more thing: at the 5000-8000 price point, Canon has a variety of L-class lenses to choose from, while Nikon has few options.

For example, they are all 16-85 and 17-40L with more than 4k, and the level is one gear worse.

The price of the small steel cannon, Canon Xiaobai or Xiaoxiaobai IS that can be considered with a little money, and the lens is also considered professional, and the effect will not be worse than that of the small steel cannon!

And Nikon does not have a professional lens similar to the Canon small ternary (full F4, 17-40F4L, 24-105L, 70-200F4L) and has lost a lot of users.

Heads like 17-40L, how many 450d, 40d, 50d customers occupy.

For the D80, D90, and D300 users, at the same price point, they can only consider silver wide-angle (or 16-85), 24-85 and small steel cannon (or 70-300) or analogues.

In terms of lenses, Canon is still a little richer.

17-40L is the red circle head.

If you don't know how to choose, whether it's Canon or Nikon.

Buy a head of 18-200 first, no matter how it is not wasted, it is convenient to travel, as for future investment.

When you have a certain foundation, how to choose, you will have a number in your heart, and you will have different answers from different angles.

The best solution for yourself is the best one.

Only you know what you really need.

The 17-40L and the 16-85 are not of the same grade, the one from Canon is the L-head, and the Nikon one is the ordinary DX head, which is not compared in this way. According to your requirements, 17-40 is a wide-angle head is not what you want, you can only shoot landscapes, portraits are not particularly good, you have to take into account the distortion of the wide-angle lens, so you can't take portraits with this 17-40L, and at the same time, this one doesn't have a telephoto, and you can't sweep the street. But if you focus on landscape photos, 17-40L is fine.

After all, it's a L-head. But if you want a wider angle, you can only go to the Nikon version, Nikon APS-C SLR's 35mm conversion multiplier is times, Canon is times, obviously Nikon angle is large, and can sweep the streets. It is recommended that you wear telephoto lenses.

If you want to go to the original 70-200 for advanced configuration, but this is very expensive, just look at your requirements should be equipped with 18-200, so the Nikon mirror is better, and the non-full-frame SLR Nikon is the best. Just suggest, the rest is up to you.

Very good, I am using a combination of d80+16-85 now.

However, the combination of the Canon you choose is obviously higher-grade, so if you can afford it, you should buy 40d+17-40.

ps: Don't buy the 18-200 that panther2 a1 says, people who have used this head are very annoyed, and the telephoto end is extremely meaty.

The Canon 40D mid-range machine has an alloy body, which can play the role of electromagnetic shielding, and also helps to protect against dust and water, with a shutter life of 100,000 times. 17-40L head, there is no doubt about the performance of the red circle lens, shooting scenery is fascinating, street sweeping is not good, and the focal length is not long enough. The D90 is Nikon's entry-level device, which corresponds to the Canon 450D.

The D90 has a plastic body, which is one level different from the 40D. With 16-85 heads, it is still difficult to sweep the streets.

Canon 40D, it's enough to shoot what you said.

D90One is that the price is inflated, and the other is that a camera function has been added this year, and it always feels bad with a camera function on SLR.

The 17--40 head is still good, after all, it is an L-level red circle head, consisting of (3 aspherical lenses, 1 super ultra-low dispersion lens), and a full-time manual focus function, which is still good.

17 focal lengths are still wide-angle after conversion.

24-105l

Basically, one lens is fine, although the wide angle is not enough, but it is okay, too wide angle is not easy to control.

Look at the red circle you invested in 17-40 24-105 are good, and the medium focus of 24-70 is also good, but if you want 1w, if you don't have enough tickets, you can buy 50 fixed, small invincible lenses.

It mainly depends on what you need, portraits can be used with 50 fixed focus, of course, you can also use 200 or 300 telephoto, mainly depending on your habits City shooting also depends on your personal requirements and habits, if you only use one lens, 28-200, 17-85, 50 fixed focus are good It mainly depends on your habits.

I replied in the text message, so let's talk about it a little more here.

Landscape photography and portrait photography are completely different lenses, generally using a wide angle for landscapes and medium focus for portraits (some masters use the opposite, this is another matter).

1. It is recommended that you buy 17-40mm for urban photography, landscape photography and daily life photography. Canon red circle head is trustworthy.

2. Purchased for portrait photography, its focal length is slightly larger than the 50mm head, and the background blur ability is stronger, this head is the most cost-effective lens in Canon's non-red circle head.

35l Considering the environment, portraits are a must-have for small wide-angle ah.

Tamron Bar is good, the focal length of 17-50 is used in 40d, which is enough to meet the daily shooting of landscapes, portraits, and macros.

And the aperture is constant, so if you don't have a big aperture, you can have a 50mm left

There is also a pullover that is not as good as this, so you can not consider it.

Imaging may be 17-50 good point, remember there is a ** review, the image quality of the Tamron 17-50 lens can be comparable to the Canon 17-40 lens!
