it's true... bitin nga ang rebel body paired with an L but sometimes you have to make do with what you have. just because it feels bitin on the hand doesn't mean the camera + lens combo is already a bad idea. what matters more is the photo and not whether it feels good on the hand or is balanced in weight.
hmm... pero diba bitin rin ang video capability ng T1i?
why does he want an L? if it's IQ, the 17-55 definitely holds its own against the other L's it's just that it doesn't have weather sealing and the red ring. range-wise, the 17-55 is really ideal for crop bodies.
