If you want something that can cover the whole range, then Sigma do some quite nice superzoom lenses - I've been using an 18-200mm stabilised lens as my every-day lens on my 60D since 2010. There's a newer (2012-era) 18-250mm lens that looks better: https://www.ephotozine.com/article/sigma-18-250mm-f-3-5-6-3-dc-macro-os-hsm-... costing around £200-£280 - but I'm a bit out of date on the newest lenses...
Thanks, Mike
Well that would certainly solve the problem of providing a decent reach without lens duplication although I'd be surprised if it didn't distort a fair bit at the wider end.
And while I'll accept the blame this conversation has been largely about lenses. Anyone got anything to say about microphones?
