Crop to FF Questions:

[Dantana]

I think there is some great advice here from some very different points of view.

My advice would be to not sell any of your EF lenses until you have your new camera. I would get the kit with the 24-105 4 L. It's a great bargain and a very solid lens. Then try what you have on your new body and you will have a much better idea of what you need. The 35, 85, and 200 primes are all very useful lenses to a lot of people.

Just my 2 cents.

More good advice. My first step into full frame was 5D3 kit with a 24-105. It is a very good lens and one that I still use. But, Dantana has probably offered the best advice so far. Get the feel of a FF body before you start re-vamping your lenses.

It's hard to fully grasp the difference between crop and FF without first-hand experience. It is as if lenses take on different personalities on crop vs. FF. In general, on FF, images can be sharper and pop my with small DOF -- plus the obvious perspective differences. It's a great idea to get accustomed to your lenses on a FF body before you get rid of them.
