I have a 35mm prime, the 18-55 kit lens and a 55-300mm zoom. I will also likely get the Tamron 150-600mm, think these will work? Thanks!

YES...my sugestion buy 2 sets. I store not only lenses but also chargers and peripherals in those protective bags they work excellent

Most likelyI never used the larger case for my 5-300. Note these bags smell like petroleum I washed them in dawn soup two weeks

It was experience that these are really ample sized. My Pentax zoom lens both fit easily in the middle two sizes, my primes in the smallest. Not sure how large the Tamron zoom you mention. For the price they are really a bargain, (I actually bought the set to get the smaller two for my mirror=less lens but they swim even in the smallest)

There are 4 bags in the set. Made of good quality fabric/neoprene material with drawstring closures, and a clip to attach the bag to a camera bag or similar. They measure approximately 3" diameter, and 4, 5, 7, 9 inches in length (inside). For the $10, not a bad deal, even it you only need or use one or two.

18-55 yes, maybe 54-300, but not the 159-600. I don't have these lenses, I use to have the 18-55.

The kit zoom lens is f 3.5-5.6 depending on the focal length it is set at. It's a good snapshot lens. No kit lens is as good as prime lenses in my opinion.

I suppose it also really depends on what you budget is now vs later down the line. You really cannot go wrong with a kit lens - especially if you don't have any MAJOR plans for upgrading or spending too much more money down the line. However, I will forever speak highly of the 50mm and the 35mm. They're prime lenses, so they're not as user-friendly to somebody, if just starting - but in reality, that also teaches you more manual-techniques, while still being an amazing lens, in general. I might be bias, though, as I no long have a kit lens, and only primarily use my prime lenses. But, maybe that means something? That I've sold most of my other lenses, and truly use my 50mm & 35mm on a daily-basis, and more frequently than my other four lenses, combined. The Tamron Tom mentioned - it's a great lens. And with the price where it currently is, it's most cost-efficient, as well; considering all the GREAT use you'd get out of it. He also mentioned the 85mm - this is another lens I have, and I love it very much. I just do not have as much wiggle-room when it comes to distance-from-subject very often. If you do have that wiggle-room - I would also very much recommend the 85mm. So really, it depends on what you're wanting to do and spend; both now and in the long-run.

The Tamron AF 28-300mm F/3.5-6.3 XR Di LD Lens Aspherical [IF] MACRO, works "without limitation" according to the website of Pentax. I use a Sony A99 and I have nothing to complain about, especially f: 8 and up. Good luck!

Thanks very much for your advice.Any recommendations for a fast 50 or 30 mm prime lens?

I have both lenses... the Canon 400 prime is one of the sharpest lenses ever made. I would however never use it with a converter... you will increase the f stop to much, at least for me. I would not replace the 400 prime with the Tamron. If I was buying new I would say its a toss up. The Tamron is soft wide open. The 400 cropped gives better results at least for me. I would however take the Tamron over the older Canon 100-400 zoom.

Yes, but not all tamron lenses. They have to be compatible with canon EF mount.

I have a Canon T2i and two Tamron lenses. The 17-50 is my primary lens for landscapes, cityscapes and indoor general purpose use. Yes the lens works great! Huge improvement over the Canon kit lens! Here are some images I took: http://www.flickr.com/photos/baitmouth/ The most recent were taken with the 17-50.

Have not tried the tamron the cannon 24-70 2.8L II . Is a a purchase I'll never regret. It holds up against my friends zeiss primes plus blazing fast auto focus

It depends on which lens you are trying to connect. If its the 18-55 stock lens or the 70-200 zoom, from Canon, I believe, I believe that those are 58mm, already. Please tell me which lens exactly you are using, so I can assist better, Chloe.

Hi, before buying this 55-200 I would rent the lens and try. After checking if this is enough for softball games, I would decide what to buy.You might be able to find similar prices for the 100-300mm as well.

I haven't confirmed this yet, but from everything I've read the 52mm is what you should be using for the 18-55 lens.

Yes, this kit will work just fine with those lenses. My only drawback with these is that they are plastic gels. I just couldn't afford to go with glass. But, if you take extra care, they will last a good long time! :-) Hope this helps!

It depends on what the size of the lens you have. The ones that are in this kit are only 58mm filters. For me the lenses were to big for my 43 & 52mm lenses. But other than the filters the kit is fine. But I would search on amazon for the size of the lens (the size of the lens is on the outer rim of the lens) itself. Ex: 30mm, 32mm, 38mm, 40mm, 43mm, 45mm, 52mm, 58mm ect.. but again the lens in this kit are only 58mm and a upgrade ring to go from 58mm to 60mm

Hi,Both are super sharp lenses. My recomendation for street photos would be the 18-35mm, rather than the prime 35. With the first one you have more options zooming in and out with a lens so sharp in every step that it feels more like a prime. A would recommend you to take a look to the review from this site which I trust a lot: http://m.dpreview.com/articles/7613711074/dpreview-top-picks-stand-out-third-party-lenses

I had two Tamron SP AF 2X, one for Canon and one for Nikon. They worked great with Tamron 150-600mm for their counterpart lenses for Canon 5D Mk III. 70D, T3, T5 or Nikon D5300 and D800. However, you have to take pictures with Manual Exposure to enjoy the 2X effects with full frame or cropped sensors. Auto may not work.

I think it should be compatible for that model but I do not have that model. Just be aware of Tamron's poor customer service. They over charge and do not guarantee their repairs at all for used lens.
