I have been thinking of buying a new lens for my D40. My problem is I can't decide if I should buy a nifty-fifty or a 55-200 or not get a lens at all and buy a Sb-600.
The reason I can't decide is that I am a noob to photography - 6 months - and I keep on hearing that it is good to use a fixed lens as your beginning/ main lens because it limits you and forces you to try and obtain your desired photo a different way. And I was thinking about getting the 55-200 because I was at one of my little sister's ocean swim, during summer, and couldn't zoom in close enough to get a good photo but also I am like how much am I really going to use the 55-200.
I am in to all types of photography but mostly into macro, landscape, & portraits.
Or what do you think I should get
