A little above your $400 limit though. The stock lens is pretty wide at 18mm. Why not just use that? If you're starting to see the shortcomings of it, then it's time to start saving for the 17-55 f2.8 lens.

I have both the 10-22 and 17-55, but find I am using the 10-22 less and less these days.
The stock lens I have a problem with shooting landscapes. When it is on AF it can't focus on its own and just keeps trying and I have to put it into MF and it's annoying. Plus nothing is very clear after like 50 feet.


Here are some photos from the 75-300 btw. I got some nice shots from sooo far away and they came out pretty clear.

The first one was maybe 15 feet away but I'm bad with distance, and the bird was maybe 20 feet.




Thanks guys
