Ok...I think went a little nuts this morning (I believe it's because of an accumulating stress from work). I decided to buy two lenses that went on sale. Not one of those great lenses though since I thought I'm still an amateur anyways. Why would I need those L-slash-super-expensive lenses if I can't use them properly anyways?
So, here's what I bought:
So, here's what I bought:
Canon EF 28-90mm F/4-5.6 III
(Original price = $190. I bought it for $49.95. Not bad right? And according to the review, this lens is not so bad for its price. It might not be a great professional lens, but I believe it'll be enough for me. But I guess I won't really know until I get my hands on it, will I?)
Sigma 70-300mm f/4-5.6 DG Macro Telephoto Zoom Lens
(Original price = $149. I bought it for $132. Well, there's not much difference in the price, but the lens can still be considered cheap. So far my experience using Sigma lenses has been pretty good. So, I have no problem in using another sigma lenses. Again, the price pretty much says it all. It's not one of those great lenses but might still be a good lens. According to the review that I read, it's a not-so-bad lens for amateur photographer such as myself.)
So, we'll see how these two lenses work in a few days. So happy to have new lenses. Not that I really need it that much, but I have always been an impulse buyer, which is obviously not a good thing when I have such an expensive hobby.
Well, that's all the update I have for now. I have a set of photos of my friend that I need to edit/play with. But probably it won't be ready for a while with all the work I have in my hands right now. It's kinda hard being a photographer on the side when you have such a demanding job as an engineer.
