Well I just got the tokina 11-16 and I have to have a fisheye - so it is a keeper. But with 17-55 and 10-22, I feel like one should be up for sale. I am in the market for used 5D too > well all of these are for crop body anyway :confused:

Come spring rebate I would like to treat myself with the 35 1.4 and 85 1.2 > does it make sense for me to keep my sigma 30 1.4 and 85 1.8? I am just thinking since I have very good copies might as well keep them as back up?
I don't know if I'm the only who can't let go when it is time to upgrade. :oops:

Thoughts my ever supporting POTNers???

Sorry, I am trading the 11-16 to 10-17 with a friend because I wanted a fisheye. I am so confused with these numbers... thanks!

If you are going to a full frame system then you might as well sell the 11-16, 10-22, 17-55, and 30mm and get lenses that will work on both FF and crop systems.

If you are getting the 35/85L I see little point in keeping your 30/85 unless your shooting actually necessitates having backups.

Thanks Dorman, maybe I will try to trade first and see how it goes.

The 11-16 can be used on FF, the 10-22 and 17-55 not so much, and the 30mm not at all.

I have all 3. If I had to drop one it would be the 11-16 Tok. The Tok's range is just too short for me. Also, I really love the Canon's 10-22 color and IQ.

There's no way I'd let the 17-55 leave me. :)
