Reddit mentions of Canon Portrait and Travel Two Lens Kit with 50mm f/1.8 and 10-18mm Lenses

Oh! I keep forgetting about this. Everyone is telling you about single lenses, but Canon does offer a 2 lens set with the 10-18mm zoom and the 50mm f/1.8 prime for about $350. If you looked at used lenses for the 24mm, you could pick up all 3 for right about $500.

I bought the same kit you did right before I went to Florida for Christmas. I ended up buying this lens kit while I was down there and was very happy with it. It's $350 which I know it's a little more than what you had asked for but it gives a good amount of flexibility. The wide angle is made for the T6i crop sensor but the 50mm will be more like an 75-80mm.

Here is an unprocessed pic I took with the 50mm.

hey everyone, I'm going on a trip to Ireland in a couple weeks and decided it might be time to pick up a few things. for reference ive got a Canon T3i and the 2 kit lenses. (18-55, 75-300)

I thought this would be an excellent opportunity to get a wide angle lens and after looking it seems like canons 10-18 is a good choice, and they have that in a bundle that comes with the 50 f/1.8 as seen here, which seems like a good deal.

Adding two more lenses means my case is WAY too small and after reading through the megathread I found this amazon basics bag which seems more than large enough, non descript and at a very affordable price point.

so is that all good for the price? just looking for confirmation,

thanks.

Hi guys!

I'm traveling to Iceland soon to see the Northern Lights. As much as I want to remember it with my eyes, I haven't been able to trust my memory that well lately. I was wondering if using my Canon 7D Mark II, I could capture some incredible pictures/videos. Any advice would help! I'm not new to photography, but I'm relatively ignorant to a lot of settings (i.e. how I can get good pictures by adjusting my settings).

The lenses I'm working with are:

• 50mm f/1.8 and 10-18mm Lenses
  
  
• Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens
  
  
• Sigma 24mm F1.4 ART DG HSM Lens for Canon
  
  I'm not really looking to buy any other lenses at the moment either, so this is what I have to work with. Any suggestions on how to get the best shot would be great!
  
  (On a side note, if anyone has any suggestions on photographing the Blue Lagoon, I'd gladly accept it :) )

If you are into landscapes then I highly recommend it. If you don't have a portrait lens yet look into Canon's Portrait and Travel Lens Kit. It comes with the 10-18mm as well as a 50mm f/1.8 prime. Two of my favorite lenses and it's a crazy good deal.

Hello Reddit, I was just given a Canon Rebel XT that was gathering dust in a friend's garage. What are some things I should do to make sure it is working properly and also what should I buy that would help me start off in photography? I was looking around and I am thinking of getting this set of lenses. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance!

What do you guys think of this Canon 50mm f/1.8 and 10-18 f/4.5-5.6 bundle? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01LEEY6CS/ref=twister_B017OAXTL0?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I have a T5i and I want to get into portraits mainly indoors in a budget studio I am setting up in my room. I think the 10-18mm will be nice for vacations because I go up mountains and fire towers in the Adirondacks which gives me access to amazing sights that usually require my phone's panoramic mode.

I am a bit nervous about the 50mm though because of the crop sensor of the t5i and the limited space of my bedroom studio. Should I instead go for a 24mm f/2.8? Problem there being that there is no 10-18 bundle with Canon's 24mm :(

Thank you for the response! Do you think this deal on amazon would be worth the purchase regarding the 10-18 and the 50? https://www.amazon.com/Canon-Portrait-Travel-10-18mm-Lenses/dp/B01LEEY6CS/ref=sr_1_5?keywords=Canon+EF-S+10-18mm+f%2F4.5-5.6+IS+STM+Lens&qid=1550809677&s=gateway&sr=8-5

One of them only works on Canon's low-end DSLRs too :/

If I were you I'd go out and try to shoot some landscape photography with your 18-55mm lens and take a look at the shots afterwards to determine if the wide-angle is necessary. 18mm is pretty wide and would work well for a lot of landscape shots but you go shooting with it and if you think you need a bit wider then go for it!

Getting a telephoto lens would, like you said, give you a wider range of shots and would be great for wildlife photography when you're out shooting landscapes and spot a deer, or other animal.

Another lens you might want to consider is the Canon 50mm f/1.8 which is great for portraits and it's only $110.

There's this bundle here for $350 it includes the 10-18mm lens you mentioned as well as the 50mm lens I mentioned.

Some other options:

Canon 24mm f/2.8 which is a lot of people on this sub recommend as a good general purpose lens. ($150)

Samyang 14mm f/2.8 is another highly recommend wide-angle lens mentioned on this sub, manual focus only but it's cheap! ($300)

Edit:

Also, check out this thread from yesterday! It was basically asking people from this sub what their favorite relatively cheap lens were and I found it extremely helpful.
