What lens to buy?

[staceyann]

I got my 5D Mark 1 last week. I want a prime lens. Maybe 24mm 1.8 to go on my 5D? I can't afford 1.4 right now. See my lens line up in my signature. Which lens should I keep 100mm or 50mm Macro? I am thinking of selling one of them for a 24mm. What do you think of Sigma 24mm? Any other opinions/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I would keep the 100mm, you can do so much with it, you have two 50mm's, granted one is a macro but my thoughts are to keep the 100. My next lens is a tilt shift. I have alot of the same lenses that you do. So I wanted something different. Tilt Shift is different!

T/S is pretty useless for weddings, a nieche lens that'd be used for a couple of shots at most.

If you want to use the 5D as your main camera you need either a good prime or a good standard zoom. 24-105 F4L or a prime. Check out the lens reviews on fredmiranda.com.
