Re: Taking Stock

I cannot comment on any of your current lenses as I have not tried them myself and since I am tied into Nikon lenses cannot really comment on the Canon side of things.

That said, don't let the camera equipment you have stop you from taking pictures, the more you take the better you will become. The better lenses will not in themselves make you a better photographer, although it sounds like the kit lens leaves a bit to be desired from what has been said so far.

Photography is more about seeing a picture and transfering it to your chosen medium (film, memory card, etc) as you see it in your mind than having the best lens, camera or gadget.

Give a top wildlife photographer a point and shoot camera and they will still walk away with better pictures than you or I no matter what we are using, it is what they do all day after all.

Learn all you can about your camera, techniques and your chosen subject and you will take better pictures, better equipment will only allow you to improve on that.

Regards

Tim
