Hi, I'm new to this whole thing. And am lost. Was wondering where i would go about getting some information on the different types of lenses for beginners.
I look at the numbers and am very lost.
Thanks!

Hi Tamster, and welcome to DPS.

Could you answer a few questions first? It will make it easier to help you.

1. What camera do you have?
2. What is your budget?
3. What do you like to shoot?

In our Other Digital Photography Gear section we have two sticky threads they may help you. Budget Lenses under $200 and DSLR Lenses for Beginners.

Thanks! I'll check it out. I'm getting ready to purchase The Canon T1i but there are so many different packages you can get so i just want to get the basics right now.
I enjoy shooting just about everything. Haha! I mostly do nature shots, and action shots of my daughter, try to do close up portrait shots. Lets see... today I have taken pictures of the Moon, Sun, and a Owl. Just random stuff. If that helps any?
