Its time to start gather my ultimate set of lenses,

I shot mainly wildlife (long focal length) but I also do studio, landscape and macro

(or in other words, all of all).



I was thinking about :

Canon 10-22

Canon 17-55 F2.8 IS

Canon 70-200 F2.8 IS

Canon 180mm Macro

Canon 100-400 IS





Which lenses will you choose (non unlimited budget but a generous one) for an APS-C (Canon 7D) ?





Thanks !

Wildlife, studio, landscape and macro is hardly all of all. There's also sports, photojournalism, paparazzi-ing, candid, weddings, architecture, ...



You may consider a large-aperture lens, like the 85mm f/1.2 or 135 f/2, just for the extra background blur. I saw the results of a modelling class held by Canon Denmark, none of the pictures were with smaller apertures than f/2! Also, for wildlife in particular, you may want to consider a long prime instead of the 100-400. I also agree with getting the Sigma 8-16 for wide-angle.



Or, if you're really crazy, get the SigZooka (200-500 f/2.8). It requires a very solid tripod, and you probably don't want to schlep it far, but damn. Even comes with a 2x converter
