Hi List I'm about to take the plunge into digital in the new year and the Canon 1ds mk11 appears to be my best option for the work I do. When I will be able to get my grubby hands on one is another matter..
I'll be changing from a Nikon film system hence I will need a new set of lenses. I'm hearing different things from people regarding my choice of lens for digital regarding problems with dust. Should I use zoom lenses and avoid the risk of dust intrusion when changing lenses or go for primes, change lenses more often but cut back the amount of dust I am told can be 'sucked' into the system. I see the Canon as a replacement for both 35mm and the Contax 645 system I use at present. I get by with four lenses on the Contax fine but use zooms almost exclusively on the Nikons. Are there any Canon lenses Canon users regard as a must have? I would be grateful of any opinions. Also can anyone recommend a good 'bible' for a digital novice. I try to keep up with this forum but will be starting more or less from scratch and would like to read an up to date book to avoid basic questions.
