Hiya, Canadian here.
I have a Olympus E-510 with the kit lense (14-42mm). While they are decent, sometimes I just feel like I am not close enough for a good shot. This is often frustrating, especially when I'm up in the park and there are great chances for taking pictures of wildlife.
I have never messed with lenses before, so I am looking for a general use lookaround lenses that I can use for most occasions, then I can branch out from there depending on what kind of photography I really do. I looked around the internet, but there are so many options and different widgets that lenses have, I cannot decide what is best for my budget, which is just under 300 loonies.
It would be greatly appreciated if some of you veteran folks can point me to the right way on which types of lenses that are right for me, and what kind of zoom I would need.
Thanks and hopefully you have warmer weather than up here! :mrgreen:
