[QUOTE="AC016, post: 91310, member: 9619"] Welcome to the forum. Sounds like you are a real begginer and there is nothing wrong with that. We were all begginers becasue we have to begin somewhere. However, there is no need to stress yourself out about filters or anything else at this point in time. Not to be harsh, but if you don't know what the numbers on your lens means and if you feel "lost", i would venture no further than maybe buying the 18-55mm lens. This will complete your kit. Read your manual back to front and front to back or whatever.... just read it! As of this moment, your only concern should be to learn how to use your camera and to also learn about all the numbers on the lens and the ones that appear on your LCD screen. Anyhting else at this point does not matter and will only confuse you and take you away form learning the fundamentals of photography. If anyone comes by and says that you need such and such a software, RUN! Learn how to take a "good" picture before diving into software. To many people who begin photography, end up learning how to use their software better than they know how to use their camera to take a "good" picture. Don't be one of them.
