Equivalent Lens

Hi All I've been away for a very long time, but as we are in an very unfortunate situation at the moment it 's encouraged me to get my camera out again and I'm getting rather excited about taking some pics again. Now I can't remember when I last posted something on this site, probably about ten years ago. I don't even recall taking any worth while pictures within that time. I still have the same gear as I did then, but I am considering changing my Tamron 17-50 for something that is more equivalent to to this present time to use for more everyday use. I've had the standard 18-55 and the 16-45 lenses. I don't really want to spend too much on one, but saying that it depends what it is. and whether it's worth the extra outlay. If it's not worth it then that's fine, just interested in what people have to say. Let's hope that once again I can contribute to this site. As always your thoughts and opinions are most welcome

I'd get out and take some photos, but note what you wanted and what you actually got. Comparing the two should quickly point you towards a lens requirement.

Looks to me though that your kit should keep you happy for a while, assuming GAS doesn't get you.

I’ll stick with the Tamron and get and out take loads of photos and begin to enjoy it again.

Good decision. It's all about enjoyment in the end (and that's a lot cheaper than new equipment!). Looking forward to seeing some photos.
