Any lens enthusiasts out there? I was wondering if I would be better off getting the [Tamron SP AF 70-300 VC USD] (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tamron-70-300-4-5-6-Lens-Canon/dp/B003YUBTIU/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1453385125&sr=8-3&keywords=tamron+70-300mm) (300€ where I am) than the [Tamron 70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di LD Macro 1:2] (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tamron-AF-70-300mm-4-5-6-Macro/dp/B000HDZAUA/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1453385125&sr=8-4&keywords=tamron+70-300mm) (100€ where I am) For my Canon t3i/EOS 600D. This is strictly for astrophotography. Would the first one be significantly better in terms of, let's say coma, chromatic abbrevation, sharpness etc. or would it not matter as I won't be shooting birds and stuff? Other lens recommendations are welcome.
I'm very much a newbie to photography, but have been having fun over the last 6 months playing around with a 550D using the 18-55mm kit lens and - like everyone else in the world it seems - the nifty fifty. I'm keen now to do a bit of wildlife photography, so I'd like to get a longer zoom lens, I would guess with a max focal length in the 250-300mm range. Since I have pretty shaky hands I think some kind of image stabilisation must be a necessity; looking around online has yielded three possibilities, a Canon, a Sigma and a Tamron. Comparing reviews for these lenses has basically just confused me, so if anyone who's used one or more of them could give me some insight I'd greatly appreciate it. Lenshero ranks the Tamron very highly, but I just don't know whether it's worth double the money that the Canon is.
That would be new, yes, i actually dont know what i would recommend used. You basically want an aps-c body and atleast one decent long lens thats a zoom. An Nikon D500 would probably be best, but thats more or less a beefed up D7500, so you could safe a bit money there. But i dont know enough about most long lenses to recommend something. First that comes to mind would be this : https://www.amazon.de/Tamron-70-300mm-4-5-6-digitales-Objektiv/dp/B003YUBTIU/ref=sr_1_3?__mk_de_DE=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&keywords=tamron+70+300+vc&qid=1573079532&s=ce-de&sr=1-3
Are you talking about the tamron with or without the stabilization ?
