[QUOTE="TwistedThrottle, post: 740490, member: 46724"] Hi C Bruce. Welcome to the forum! Without knowing what camera, etc. I would go with a wide zoom and a telephoto zoom. Im going to assume you have a crop sensor camera. I know they're kit lenses, but 18-55 & 70-300 lenses cover most applications. If you go with the AF-P lenses with the newer pulse motor which is super quiet and superior for video, make sure your camera is compatible. I would suggest looking for VR lenses (especially for video on both lenses but needed for the telephoto even for photos) unless you're shooting from a tripod or in direct sunlight with very high shutter speeds rendering the VR useless. If you shoot in low light and if you have space, consider a 3rd lens, 35mm 1.8g or instead grab a 18-300 and the 35mm prime to stick with your 2 lens requirement. [/QUOTE]
