Just saw this post. Anyone got some advice on Canon lenses?  I've got a DSLR and looking at getting some new lenses.  I've been told there is a really good one for around the $150 mark (no zoom) just takes really solid pictures.  Also seen a lense for long range that's in the $170 ball park.  Both are made from plastic hence the low prices, but from reviews they sound pretty solid.  Anyone used these before?

Damn, they're some good photos

If ever the phrase "you get what you pay for" applies it's probably with camera lenses mate.

Really?  I've had a few photographers say the $150 is awesome, a couple of reviews say it's light and plasticy, but maybe 1 out of 10.  I'll do a bit more investigating anyway.

First hand information is always best from those using them, let us know how they go/post some shots if you go with them.

I'll prob get the $150 one and see how it goes, until I want something with further reach.

Cheap enough to have a crack at if you've got some good feedback, interested to see how it goes.

Tonight's effort...

flowering sweet Craigy! Is that a quarry or something?

[Mr.Craig]

Nah, that's the local conservation park. ;)

Also, thanks.

Love it! How'd you get the foreground so light but capture the stars? Just a really clear night?

The moon came up for the last 20 or so shots which helped. I also used my torch in the last shot.

Thanks for the insight Craigy. Very creative :)
