Hiya, I'm buying my first DSLR and after much research I have decided I'm going to get a D7000.
The only thing I'm now stuck on is what lens to get with it. I've tried researching it but there's just so many recommendations that I keep jumping between lenses and can't make my mind up. I do intend to collect a kit over time however with the initial purchase of buying the camera, I'm not going to have too much money to spend on the lens just now so I'm willing to start of with a cheaper lens while I get used to the camera and such.
I can't decide whether to go with the 18-105mm kit lens or I quite like the look of the 50mm 1.8G. Or if there's something else decent in this price range.
I do have a more special interest in Macro photography however I would like to keep my options open in terms of being able to explore different things. I do really like the look and image quality of the 50mm but I'm not sure what the realities of shooting with it will be as a main lens for a few
months.
I've had an interest in photography since I was 14 (now 20) and have slowly built up. I have a Fujifilm Finepix s1500 just now which is a far cry from a dslr. I feel I've really outgrown it in the last 2 years however I haven't been able to afford the jump to a dslr so I've been saving.
Thanks, I'd appreciate any help.
Please no nikon/canon snobs I've made my mind up on the camera, just looking for some help on a lens to start with ;)
