I'm Soon to the Proud Owner of...

These:



Canon Wide Angle 10-22mm lens



Canon Telephoto 70-300mm lens

Sean was a dear and told me to take some of our leftover tax refund money and get myself some new lenses. I have to say he's very supportive of my photography and I do love him for that.

I've been researching lenses for quite some time and I knew these two were next on my list to buy. Hopefully this summer I can add a macro lens to my collection as well. Thankfully a macro lens will be the cheapest of the bunch.

I cannot wait to start shooting with these!

Yay for tax refund money!! I think we put all of ours into savings. You will have a blast taking pics of it in Italy!!! What a perfect time to get a good camera.

Enjoy!!

Yay! I have a hard time deciding what to get. A macro is definitely on my list. Have fun with your new toys!

I have the large lens. It came in the bundle that I got when I bought my camera. They definitely aren't cheap. Enjoy.

Very jealous! I need to seriously invest in a better camera than the point and shoot one I have now! I'm sure you'll put those lenses to good use!

You won't regret the money spent on good lenses, that's for sure.

I'm excited that Sean and you agree that your photography is worth investing some money in. Too bad Matt can't share my love for hobby lobby and target and just let me spend as I wish ;)
I love all the pics you take, can't wait to see what you'll come up with using the new lenses.

Abbie said...

Oooh how exciting! I can't wait to see the pics you'll be taking now!

...*jealous*... where did you do your researching? i've been finding lots of "opinions" people have on lens preferences, but they are so inconsistent and i can't tell if they know what they're talking about. :P
