Long story short: I'm leaving for a Chicago vacation in a month. For this I want ample Canon gear to shoot with, and I began building a ground-up kit as of this week. So far:
-EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS
-EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-5.6
-EF 50mm f/1.8
Because my budget (~$2,000 after the above purchases) does not allow for full frame...and because I want video capture... the best body I can find is the 7D (hence the EF-S glass). I must also factor a MacBook Pro into the math, which leaves me with about $1,000-$1,500 to work with.
My question to you guys:
Am I wrong to go with the 10-22mm over something like a 24-105mm f/4L to cover my wide end on a 1.6x sensor? The 70-200 is definitely too tight to keep on all of the time. Should I reconsider my choices and sell some glass?
Also, with my budget, should I be looking at other bodies (550D)? The 5D mkI looks nice, but is getting dated and doesn't have video. Note that all of this will be purchased used, meaning at much less than retail. I got the 70-200mm for $1,300.
Thanks!
