Hi,
I am new to DSLR's and after a lot of research, I have finally decided on the Nikon D3200. But I need help with what lens to buy. The main photograph's that I will be taking are holiday and family photo's. Ideally, the lens won't be too large, and I want to be able to zoom in a decent amount. I have looked online, but there are far too many to choose from. Jessops currently have a deal on at the moment: Nikon D3200 + 18-55mm VR II Lens + Tamron 70-300mm Lens for £369, will these lenses suit my needs, or am I better off buying the camera body only, for £225 and spending more on one lens that will suit my needs. Jessops chat recommende the Tamron 18-270mm, but at £329, this seems a bit expensive to me as a beginner.
On a seperate note, my friend took photographs at a Christening using the Nikon 35mm 1.8 prime lens (with a D3200) and the photo's looked amazing. Is this a good lens to buy?
Thanks
Emma
