[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 301541, member: 13090"] As for some good walkabout lenses I'd suggest either the Nikon 18-140mm or the 18-105mm. The latter will be less expensive but having both at the moment, I much prefer the 18-140mm. Still, the 18-105mm is hugely popular, an excellent lens and be awesome on your D5300. I just bought my girlfriend a 5300 and the removal of the OLPF really seems to make a significant improvement in image quality. You've invested in an excellent camera body with the 5300, don't hamstring it with less than ideal glass; believe you me, you'll be glad you spent the extra few bucks for top notch glass. As for filters, skip the UV filter and get the [URL="http://www.amazon.com/67mm-HD-Circular-Polarizer-Filter/dp/B001G7PMFY/ref=pd_sim_p_3?ie=UTF8&refRID=0M9VEHDRAKBXFWR28BF9"]Hoya HD Circular Polarizng filter[/URL] (aka a "CPL"). Super tough glass, it cleans up super easy (and if you've not tried to get a multi-coated filter you don't know how frustrating that can be) and it will actually *do* something for your photography.
