I just purchased a Canon 1D classic today and am looking for some advice. I\'ve never owned a DSLR until today. and I\'m wondering if I have my bearings straight. I would like to take scenic/landscape photos and from my research I plan on picking up the following lenses in this order when I can manage the funds:
EF 50mm f/1.8 (MK I if poss.) -> EF 85mm f/1.8 USM -> EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM -> EF 50mm f/2.5 Compact Macro (for photographing coral my aquarium) -> Fisheye (in my dreams/for fun)
I should be \"set\" after that, right? I\'d also like to take night time landscape shots, but that should just require managing the settings correctly, yes? I tried on the gf\'s Nikon D3100 once and failed. If there are lenses from other makers that I should consider instead of the ones listed, please fill me in on your opinions. Lens acquisition will be a slow journey, no doubt.
Also, if anyone has any 1D specific/newbie accessories they\'re looking to sell, please send me a PM. All I have so far is the body, battery and charger. I\'m particularly after the OEM charger (NC-E2) as my bundle came with an aftermarket charger/batteries. Thank you for your consideration.
