Question: Canon EOS Users!?
I'm going on holiday to Iceland this summer, and I was wondering if there were any lenses, or settings that you could recommend, as it is going to be extremely bright!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
For landscapes I'd suggest a wide lens, such as the Canon EF-S 10-22 or the Sigma 10-20 !.!.!. also I'd suggest for an everyday walk around lens the Canon EF 17-40 f/2!.8L !.!. if that is not in your budget, the Canon EF 28-135 IS USM!.!. The Canon EF 50mm 1!.8 is an inexpensive prime lens, great for interior shots!.

Any of the lenses can be stopped down so the brightness is not as much of an issue as you'd think, but!.!. I'd also bring a Circular Polarizer for each lens size, and perhaps a Neutral Density filter or two, in different strengths!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I agree with foggy, but might I also suggest bringing split density neutral density filters!. These are denser on the top of the filter, and less dense on the bottom!. These are good for landscapes in which the sky is much brighter than the landscape itself,!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
