I think those four would pretty much cover anything. Maybe toss in a teleconverter.

I have been adopting an all prime setup on my 5Dc for some time.

As much as I love all my prime lenses, the frequency of dust getting into my sensor is really a pain. It seems like I need to get the sensor cleaned every other month. Do any of you face the same issue? :cry: I do change lenses when I am out.

I uses the 35/50/135. I did thought of getting a travel zoom, but everytime when I am about to bite the bullet, something just stopped me........I guess, life will never be the same again after I switched to primes.....:)

Mostly contrast bump. The grass is very green at a ball park and they hose the dirt down.

great lens. I upgraded to 24L II though. I'd sell you mine but I don't think it's worth it to ship there.

How much do you want for it?
It always feels good to buy something from fellow enthusiasts.


Cheers! :D
