Got a Canon 400D (Rebel XTi) with kit lens since I had 3 Canon slrs before I went digitial with Sony cams 6 years ago and have several lenses not being used plus a 380 EX flash with E-TTL. My lens are a 10-year-old prime 50MM 1:1.8 lens plus a 10-year-old 28-105 1:3.5-4.5 USM zoom lens that work with the 400D. I am using the camera for general purpose photography -- parties, landscapes, events (parades not sports), urban shots, Christmas decor ,etc. Do I still need to acquire a zoom or other type of Canon lens with IS such as the EF-S 17-85 4-5.6 IS USM or 28-135 3.5-5.6 IS USM? Are these old lens better than the kit lens? Is the 380EX flash good enough or do I still have to buy the 430 EX?
