Lens Recommendations for Canon T7I/800D? I’m looking for an all round zoom lens to bring when I’m travelling. If it works well for general use then it’s a plus as well. I have owned this camera for a couple of years now but the only 2 lens I own are the kit EFS 18-35mm and the 50mm F/1.8 STM lens. I have seen suggestions of the 18-135mm Nano and 24-70mm lens but I’m not sure what to ge…

Budget lens to shoot concerts? I’ve always wanted to own a Sony 70-200mm f/2.8 for shooting concerts, but my budget is tight right now. I’m looking for a more affordable alternative that still gets the job done. I considered the Sony 70-200mm f/4, which sells for around 1,000€ where I live, but I’m concerned about its aperture limitations for concert photography. I also shoo…

Should I get a 100-400mm lens or 180-600mm lens for wildlife filming? I am going to film jaguars and I am torn between a 100-400mm lens and a 180-600mm lens.

Is the difference between 400 and 600mm a big one at this distance, or will I be able to get good close ups with 400mm? And…

Is the mounting ring on this lens repairable? My camera fell while getting out of the car. I think the body hit the ground and just the impact caused the lens to break of.

On the first picture it looks realy bad but after t…
