Lens suggestions

[AcinonyxJG]

Got the camera! 60D and 18-55mm lens, I have decided that I will buy a tripod and whatever accessories I will need (bag, ND graduated filters, cleaning stuff) and then rent a tokina 11-16mm and canon 70-200mm.
I will save up after the trip and buy the lenses I need when at home.

Thanks for the help, James

if you are renting why rent the tokina? just rent the canon 10-22
the main reason is canon lenses have less risk of needing micro adjustment for the AF the tokina could be out a bit and you have no way to adjust it on the 60D

Congratulations! The 60D is a lot of fun to use. You'll enjoy it!

Thanks, so far I'm loving it, have not found anything to fault it with yet, but to get the full capabilities, I will have to buy some accessories and a tripod, over the next couple of years I will also be saving for one or two different lenses.

Congrats on the purchase, once you've got used to the lens on the 60D you can start thinking about the next purchase
