Guys
Thanks for the quick replies.
I was going to setup a tripod and shoot with that as well (but considering when im overseas all shot will be hand held I decided to do just that)
I understand every lense is different so that being said I am going to try the tripod method at different focal lengths but am not sure what focal lengths to try?
I will only take one lens that’s a guarantee. So I want to make sure I get the best one to maximise my chances of getting decent pics as going overseas isn’t something I get to do every year.
And also to touch base on the different lense having different setting on the camera?? Im guessing that’s not the way it is (im only asking this since all the other lenses bar the 18-105 gave clear pics almost all the time, but the 18-105 was the slowest to focus out of the lot)
I also tried the 50mm 1.8d lense and the pics weren’t that great
But I will do a comparison soon with a tripod.
cheers
