I have the foll

Canon EF-S 18-55 kit
Canon EF 28-200 mm f 3.5-5.6
Canon EF 90-300 mm f 4.5-5.6
Canon BG -E3

Sigma 18-200 mm

I'm a noob in photography. As I see it, the range of the above lens seem to overlap.
However, I am not so sure about the performance of each lens at a specific range.

Except for the Sigma which I bought for my travel use, the rest I inherited from a good samaritan.


If there is redundancy, which should I keep and which to dispose?

What about the BG..I've not used it until now

I am clueless as to the price of the above used lens which are in near mint condition, hardly used.
Anyone has any idea?

Since u have ur sigma, mayb u can sell off ur
Canon EF-S 18-55 kit
Canon EF 28-200 mm f 3.5-5.6,
keep ur 90-300 for a longer range.

bro, dah beli pakai aje, wanna keep BG for dust? Dispose it isnt a good idea.
use tat BG for more battery power and do some vertical portrait shots for us.


*everything is juz my 2 cents:drunk:

If your redundancy BG is an E2, I will be happy to dispose it for U.

Just too bad it isn't. :P

did you know that you can still use the BG-E3 even if you only use 1 battery? I find the verticle buttons helpful for shooting in portrait :D

Dump the 90-300.
Eventough its USM but it is damn useless.
IMHO only!

Wouldn't the good samaritan feel offended if you sell the lenses?
