<p>Dear Forum users,<br> I was keep looking for answers, but still didn't quite get what I wanted.</p> <p>My relative got Canon EOS Rebel SL1 body and has about $600 to burn on lenses. She needs 1 or 2 all around lenses for travel/pleasure photography.<br> I looked at eBay and used Canon 17-40L F/4 can be found for close to $550. But this lens is better suited for a full-frame camera.I am sure one day she will upgrade to full frame, but until that day is it worth using much more expensive glass?<br> After reading some reviews about new Canon 10-18 IS STM f/3.5-5.6 and Canon 18-55 IS STM f/3.5-5.6 I am getting second thoughts about getting more expensive lens mostly designed for full frame. </p> <p>On another hand - perfectionist in me kind of cringes at the thought of a 5.6 aperture.<br> There is also another choice - used Canon EF-S 17-55 f/2.8 IS USM lens. On one hand - this one is only for cropped sensor, on another hand - could be better suited.<br> Any comments, suggestions?</p> <p>Thank you!<br> Gene.</p>
