Sand...Switching lenses on a beach can be dangerous. Sand sucks. That being said. I usually prefer the Canon lenses for my Canon body. My walk around lens is the 17-85 EFS-IS lens. Also happens to be the only EFS lens I own. It came with the camera.<BR/><BR/>I find for most uses, my 17mm end of that lens is really quite adequate. <BR/><BR/>When I travel, I very much consider what I want to carry and what I think I will use. I almost never travel with a 50mm Prime. It's tiny but why bring it?<BR/><BR/>But then again, it's a beautiful beach and what part of the shot do I want to lose. You could always try to do some Photoshop stitching and take multiple exposures to accomplish that. If you own the software to do it, it only costs a few frames on a memory card.<BR/><BR/>A bit of advice on stitching. Find your exposure first then move to complete manual mode to do the shots. The subtle variation that the camera will do in "P" mode can make for unhappy stitching.OhCaptainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09399011365659793142noreply@blogger.com
