Hello everybody. I’m planning to get my first camera body and lenses but I’m not quite sure on what lensens to get. I think I’ll get a LUMIX DMC-GF1 which I can find for fairly cheap prices so I can spend most of the money for some good lenses.
What lenses would you recommend me buying? Is there some kind of “general lenses” I can use without having to switch them according to situations? I’m very new and confused by all the technical terms and stuff
Then the advices here are very valid. I would not go for a zoom lens. Learn to frame without zooming, you will benefit later on.
Make sure the f number is low-ish (below 2) to get a nice “bokeh” effect (background - or foreground if you want to - blur). Somewhere between 35 and 50 mm.
Or, if you want to get inspired, check a site like Flickr, look for pictures you like and check what lenses are used. Mostly that info is shown.
Thanks for the advice! I’ve never used Flickr but I’ll check it out
