Since I´m planning to migrate to Canon I have been looking at bodies and lenses to start making an "ideal" bundle.
I decided to go with the XSi body (450D) plus 2 lenses, one similar to the kit lens "all around" and one telefoto like the 70-300 or similar.
Before going to make the purchase I´m still doubtful if to go with the kit lens 18-55 new version or get just the body and buy another glass of similar focal range. The kit lens well.. its the kit lens with its know flaws and advantages.
I started to fix my eye on a 17-85 IS glass which seems better than the kit lens in quality and range lens but is far from being good at wide angles (17-35) as for what I´ve read.
What other alternatives do I have for this an "all around" lens without going into bankruptcy?
Is the 17-85 worth it?
Thanks!
