tamron 17-50?

 

[naxchua]

35mm not wide enough for landscape... U will ask yourself why your lens not wide enough to cover wider angle... =P

[tecnica]

if you need to know.. get the sigma 10-20... it's a good lens... heard the tamron 10-24 also not bad...

Then go shoot with that lens. Stop thinking about gear.

hmm true. no point buying extra gears

we have newbies , so its ok..
anyway " fx.x" is not focal length, its the aperture..
focal length is the distance which your lens is focusing from "10 mm to 1000mm" range

Camping for your pro pic. Don't worry. Every one goes through this phase. I'm finally out of this phase, and I don't wish to see anyone sucked into it as well.

hmm true. no point buying extra gears

it's alright to look at the essential items which will help you to grow... but since you already have similar lens already, then there is no point buying the 35mm...

shoot more with your 18-200 and find your preferred focal length, then narrow down to suitable lens choices.. not just blindly buying because there is a discount going on...

 

[Raffles88]

tks for the advice. I think i will use 18-200

18-200 can do landscapes as well, 18mm is pretty wide and can cover quite a bit of ground for starters...

jumping into UWA straight away is not a good idea, due to the vast angle of view you will be dealing with, from the UWA... if your composition is not right, there will be a lot of dead space in your photos...

so practise with what you have first, when you feel you are good and confident enough, then can go a step higher..

imo as a photography hobbyist, it's the journey that counts, having good results is just a bonus...
