hello...I know. ITs been forever since Ive been here. been busy with life. My birthday(10 days) and christmas is comming up I want to tell hubby what lens is on my list of "needs". I currently have:
18-55mm efs II f5-5.6 (canon)
50mm ef f1.8 (canon)
75-300mm ef f4-5.6 (canon)
opteka HD/MC mirror 10-100(?)macro f8.0 with a 2x converter(i really havent played that much with this lens due to the haze that it has)

I also have both a 4 and a 6 point star filer(58mm) and the 58mm macro close up filter set. Ive just ordered a camera backpack(huge one) and a remote for my rebel XT. I do portraits for a living right now but I also love doing all venues of photography. I dont want or need a lens thats going to cost more than $400...I dont need hubby passing out when he researches what I want. I want something that is a step down or up in size from what I already have. Ive been looking at a 100mm but we we really cant afford that right now....so whats next on my list buddies??

Tamron 28-75mm f/2.8 SP. Probably the best thing for under $400 out there.
