Hi all,
i have a Canon EOS 10D and i'm in trouble :rolleyes: to choose the right lens.
My favourites are:
Sigma 15-30 f3.5-4.5 DG EX
Sigma 20-40 f2.8 DG EX
Tamron 17-35 f2.8-4 SP Di
Canon 17-40 f4 L
Sigma 24-70 f2.8 DG EX

What you think is the better?
PS: i like to make photo in low light conditions

Thanks

For what you want to do it is the last one, Sigma 24-70 f/2.8, for all around, I would go with the Canon 17-40 f/4 L. As long as you are spending money, also look at the Canon 24-70L.

From what I've heard, I'd say it's a toss-up between the Canon 17-40 L and the Sigma 24-70 2.8 EX.

Canon 28 - 135 IS :D

this lense is always on the camera, it is occasionally taken off for the sigma 17 - 35 (very good lens)

and i have just Acquired a Tokina 80 - 400 (only used once at the moment)

the 28 is not enough wide for my style, however thanks foe you suggestion.
You find the sigma 17-35 good? can you show me some foto examples at 17?

I have heard some good things about the Tamron 17-35, so I bought a used one off e-bay, it arrives Monday. We will see, I love my Tamron 28-75, I hope I love the 17-35 too.

I would suggest also looking at the Sigma 18-50 f2.8. Otherwise, the 24-70 f2.8 is an excellent piece of glass.
