Choosing the right lens, or lenses, is obviously important when it comes to creating the photographs you love. So, which lens or lens combination is right for you?
This will depend upon the type of photography you do, and here are some questions to ask:
Should I use a prime lens or a zoom lens?
What is the best focal length, or focal length range?
How much can I afford to spend?
How many prime lenses do I need, or should I switch to a zoom lens?
What are the pros and cons for both types?
In addition, it's helpful to understand how a lens is described. For example, you might come across:
RF 100mm F2.8L MACRO IS USM
or
RF 24-240mm F4-6.3 IS USM
Which letters and numbers do you need to know (especially if you order lenses online)?
This podcast answers those questions and gives you some other things to consider.
