karen_heavey Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 <p>I have had a Sony A350 for about 2 years now, I have been using it on & off. It's now time to get using this again, as I am going on holidays in Novemer to Orlando & want to take lots & lots of photo's.</p> <p>My question is regarding a new lens & flash. When I bought my camera it came with 2 lens 3.5-5.6 15-70mm & 4-5.6/55 - 200mm.<br> What lens would you recommend for my travels. There will be alot of firework pictures & pictures @ night time.<br> Also any advice on flashes is also appreciated.</p> <p>Thanks</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parv Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 What issues do you have with your current lenses? Sony HVL-F43M flash was introduced not too long ago. That may have lowered price of older flash (about same power & size but a bit annoying in off-camera use) HVL-F42M. If you are not averse to buying a used flash, check KEH.com for previously mentioned flashes along with Minolta 5600 HSD (more powerful than the other two) or renamed Sony HVL-F56M.

jemal.yarbrough Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 <p>Hunt down a used Minolta 50mm f1.4 or f1.7 for low light shooting. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherijohnson Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 <p>for fireworks shots, the lenses you have will do just fine, I can say this with confidence because I have done it with the same camera body and the wide lens. the flash I have and use is the HVL-F58AM, it has all the features you could want</p> <h1></h1> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
