Hi all
I have a canon 60D and I mainly shoot portraits I use a 50mm f1.8 prime and a 18-200mm f3.5...
I have been looking at getting a canon 24-70mm f2.8L but have been looking at other peoples photos who have a 60D and a L series lens an im just not seeing the results.
can some one tell me am I wasting my time getting a L series lens with my 60D or is I just a lack of talent on other peoples part.
should I get a L series of upgrade my camera?
many thanks
Joe.

Since you seem to already be a 'better than average' photographer, I would recommend that instead of relying on other peoples photos with the lens you are looking at, RENT one for yourself and see how you like YOUR results with it!

its over £100 to rent one for 4 days over here
Still a lot cheaper than buying one at over $2,000.00 to find out it adds nothing to your end result.

Buddy, If you threw $5000 at your lens and camera it still would not help. Why don't you learn how to use what you already have before you bad mouth other folks, I've seen your photos........

Some people enjoy slamming others when they have nothing else to do.

Your Quote:I wasting my time getting a L series lens with my 60D or is I just a lack of talent on other peoples part.
You evidently think other UHH photos posted on here were not up to your standards. Why would you ask for help yet make negative comments about others??

I'm not worried about it i value others feedback negative and posative. Although it helps if it's constructive. I was not trying to put others images and skills down I was simply just trying to get my point across.
Thanks.

Wahawk, And how is this your conversation?? The OP is a big boy and I'm sure he can take care of himself. If you don't like my post please report to the admin.. And since your slamming me, why not post your photos. I've posted hundreds good or bad, you've post 6??

Firstly at no point did I make reference to anybody's images on here! I had been comparing images on the net. Secondly if you have nothing useful to say why don't you keep your pointless opinions to yourself!

I read it as a negative towards other members. They have a People Photography http://www.uglyhedgehog.com/s-101-1.html here on the hedge hog. Maybe if you ask about Good Lens options for portraiture over there you may get the help your looking for.
