Superb shot red hot sheep. Photos like that one really shows that there's many places where the kit lens is really good :)

took this today, sadly the kit lens is my main lens.

[goatee]

If you're taking shots like this, then I wouldn't worry! That's lovely. The main thing I appreciated when I moved up from the kit lens was the added flexibility when indoors.

Just FYI, the USM lens is the old one, the new one is not USM but have much more definition. Read the review of the RebelXT in steves=digicams to see the diferences.

[Chris R/T]

Noob question:

When people are talking about "stepping the lens down", what are you refering to?

[bluej511]

Stepping down the aperture to like f/8 where its the sharpest

[surfologist]

On my 17-85, i stop down to around f/8, on my 70-200 2.8, it is sharpest around f/5.6, so play with your settings, and look at the pic when zoomed in 100%, and see where it is sharpest.

Then, using that slower aperture is called stopping down

[Chris R/T]

Oh, ok...

[Stearmandriver]

Not really a shot that showcases the technical prowess of the kit lens, but I thought it nicely whimsical (and I'm too lazy to sift through my site for something better :lol: ):

I see your running OSX do you like transparent docks i do they look so much better. Chances are you know about these apps but here goes anyway.

I prefer TransparentDock2 but if you have a Intel version you'll have to use Cleardock.

I used the kit lens a lot before I got all my other glass. And I have to admit, when I go back and look at the picts I took with them. Im not at all disapointed by its quality.

Lens did have its limmitations, but you cant expect a mirical from a $100 lens. For the money, its actually a VERY good lens.

just out of interest: why havent you used higher F stops? something like F8 or F11? I have noticed almost everyone uses that aperture for such shots (when the camera is on tripod).

[asylumxl]

im not sure if this is the reason he did it for, but f8 is 2 stops up from f4, which quadripples the shutter speed, which would require a bulb exposure.

Problem being? :)

If he's on a tripod for 8 second shutter, he could do it just as easily for 10 minute shutter.

Yes but the difference in the clouds would be very visible in the two shots. In fact, you might not see any clouds in the longer shot as they would be moving faster than the sensor could "see" them.

I didn't do any processing other than straightening up the pic as it was a bit crooked.
but one of the first things I do when editing pics is to start adjusting brightness, contrast and then colour balance.

[kit]

just out of interest: why havent you used higher F stops? something like F8 or F11? I have noticed almost everyone uses that aperture for such shots (when the camera is on tripod).

there were 2 reasons, I was trying to reduce the shutter speed to lessen the flaring of the building lights, the colouration on the water, and also it was very windy so the clouds were moving very quickly.

the second reason was that I was taking portrait pics moments earlier and forgot to change the setting! :oops: :o :oops: :)

[kit]

im not sure if this is the reason he did it for, but f8 is 2 stops up from f4, which quadripples the shutter speed, which would require a bulb exposure.

ummm... yeah... thats why i did it! hehe :) :oops:
bulb exposure would mean i would have to keep my finger on the button wouldn't it?

I like the last, very nice!

Thanks matey, she used to be so shy of her uncle with a big camera and now she keeps hugging and jumping on me! I love her so much! Of course, I could never get her to do that look again!

I wouldn't consider it a throw away lens.

Here's my shot, from this lens....

Hello Everyone , I have just bought a 400d with the kit lens . Looking at all the photos in this post was fantastic ,Could someone post the settings they used just so some of us that are new to this can get some sort of a idea. I cant wait to get out there with the camera ,

I've posted this kit lens shot before but just found this thread. It's a shame, but I don't use that lens too much any more.

I couldn't believe this is from kit lens!! very very nice and stunning shot.
Are all the pics in this series in your website from kit lens too?
Did you use anything else other than your Rebel and kit lens?

Thank you for the comments, and yes, all the images in this series on our web site are with the kit lens. It was the only lens we owned at the time I believe.

Just a quick one I took of the neighbor's pooch

Dave... how in the world did you ever get a shot of the cup that my son gave to me? :D

Just kidding... nice shot.

[asylumxl]

I thought I'd add mine, even if they aren't great. My kitlens seems quite sharp.

I'm quite satisfied with my kit lens, although my skill sucks. ;)
