Originally posted by future_retro You might just want to stick with the lens you have then. it has the same performance of most of the point and shoot lenses on the market, and the Kx will take that performance and put it to use better than any point and shoot. There's a reason why it's the included lens, because it covers the most useful focal lengths
obviously you're concerned about budget, and just buying something for the sake of buying something isn't budget conscious. I understand the want for more lenses, but since you don't know what you want you probably shouldn't buy anything until you get familiar with the camera and it's included lens. Once you get familiar with the shortcomings of your current system you'll learn what you need to upgrade. If you take all your pictures in the kit lens range in moderately to well lit areas and don't crop your pictures much then you can probably go your whole life without upgrading the lens or the camera
At this point it sounds like you're buying something you don't understand because you think you need it, I did that too and wasted money. If anything you should grab a tripod and a book with that 75 dollars and save the lenses for when you know what you really need
That makes sense...Since I bought the camera I have been taking pics of pretty much anything that appeals to me, and some that dont to be honest. With no real aspirations to take this to the "next level" Im not sure that will change as I get to know the camera better. The whole point of possibly buying the lenses was only if it turned out to be a good deal. Unfortunately or maybe not, I have other rather expensive hobbies that seem to suck the wallet dry.
Thanks for the quick responses...
P.S. books on the way and tripod already purchased
