100-400mm... there are no substitutes for cubic inches!

Maybe it's me, but you have a lot of cross over there... Trim the fat and replace with better...

IMO the 35-135 is unnecessary with the other lenses..

I say ditch the 70-300 and 35-135 to offset the 100-400 L... Or just ditch those two and get something different.. Like a tilt shift/lens baby thing-a-ma-jig...

YMMV...

That was the second lens I bought after the 50 1.8. I bought it for a special purpose but soon discovered that it was at best average (maybe below average) and that there were probably better lens for my needs, even apart from IQ. Alas, we grow too soon old and too late smart! <g>

I'm getting antsy - I want a new lens but I can't figure out what to get.

What images are you trying to take that you can't with your current lenses? Until we know that, it is really hard to offer you pertinent advice that will help enable you to achieve your photographic vision.


"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".
