[QUOTE="Moab Man, post: 226676, member: 11881"] I'm guessing you don't know yet what kind of photography you want to do specifically... yet. I'm assuming you probably have the 18-55 kit lens. You just picked up the 55-300mm. So to round you out as you grow and develop I would suggest a 35mm 1.8 Prime lens (very photographically sharp lens) or the 40mm Macro which would give you that same sharp image of the 35mm but allow you to shoot up close macro stuff. Each link goes to a lens suggested and it fits in your budget. Between the two I think I would do the 40mm macro as you will soon discover bugs, flowers, and small stuff is amazing. Here is a link to some of the fun macro stuff you can do with that lens - the stuff under Moab Man was shot with the 40mm.
