EF 35mm f2
EF 50mm f2.5 compact-macro
EF-S 60mm f2.8 macro USM
EF 85mm f1.8 USM
EF 100mm f2 USM
EF 100mm f2.8 macro USM
EF 300mm f4 IS
EF 300mm f2.8
EF-S 10-22mm f3.5-4.5 USM
EF 16-35mm f2.8 L II USM
EF 17-40 f4 L USM
EF 24-70mm f2.8 L USM
EF 70-200mm f2.8 L USM
EF 70-200mm f2.8 L IS USM
EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6 L IS USM

Thank you ahead of time for any help any one can give me, and if any one could also suggest a good flash that would also be swell.

I'd definitely choose the 85mm 1.8, as from what I am aware it's a fantastic lens for portraiture. Wouldn't know about others to take though

Although I am not a Canon user, I would have to agree with danturn about the 85mm 1.8, and I would also go with the 70-200 IS USM. With the 85, you have a good fixed range for portraiture, and with the 70-200, you can get a good range of close-ups and distance shots.

I do not pretend to be a bitch. I simply am one. Love it. Embrace it. Get over it.

That is also a decently priced lens to buy i might have to add that to my wishlist for later!

If it was me, I'd go for the 85mm 1.8 only if you're focusing more on portraits

_{It’s funny how the colours of the real world only seem really real when you viddy them on the screen.}

=bcdirector Sep 23, 2008, 11:10:02 AM

Cool, so thats 3 for that lens.. I think i might get it and the 70-200 because i will have 3 cameras on me and i would love to try that beast out specially since the rental prices are decent.. $40 to rent a $2000 lens for a weekend, not bad at all

I've never done weddings so I'm just guessing.
I'd say EF 24-70mm f2.8 L USM - I've heard some good opinions about this one, and you can be more creative than with something with a fixed focal length.

And when it comes to flashes, I know only this: you should practise a lot, because they can be tricky

Good luck!
