First DSLR, 40D and WHAT lenses? in Canon EOS Mount Posted October 23, 2007 I just decided to buy my first DLSR. I have read lots of forums about the Rebel vs 30D vs 40D and am sold on the 40D. I am however not sure yet which lenses to start with. I will primarily use the camera for leisure/travel/family types of pictures. I would love to use it for my trip in a few weeks! I don't think I will need long telephoto lense just yet. So that been said I am thinking about the following 2 of the following 3 (probably the first 2): 1) 50mm/1.42) 10-22mm/3.5~4.53) 17-55mm/2.8 I have heard a lot of good things about the 17-55/2.8. The price is few hundred dollars more than the wide angle 10-22. So I am not sure which one to buy. If any of your experts out there can shed some lights that will be very helpful! Any other starter lense suggestions are welcome as well! Thanks! Ming
