Hi everyone,
So far, I have mainly been photographing birds and macro. I would like to try landscapes as well, but I have no idea what kind of lens to use. I have a Canon EOS30D camera with kit lens, Canon 100mm F2.8 macro lens, Canon 70-200mm F2.8 lens, Canon 400mm F5.6 lens, Sigma 50-500 lens. The kit lens can be used for landscapes, but it's not that good.
I really like landscape images that have an object pretty close to the camera in the foreground, where you can still so much of the surroundings. I can't get the same effect with the kit lens, so which lens would you use for these kinds of images?
