So I just bought a Nikon d60 last night. I'm utterly confused by all these options and terms, but absolutely love the quality of the photos I've been able to take so far with just my limited knowledge of cameras from a high school photography class many years ago. Totally blows away my Canon Powershot a710IS.
However, I'd like to get some more zoom on the camera. I have the lens that came with the kit (15-55mm?) presently. I'm not looking for anything with an incredible level of zoom (yet), but being able to close in on things a little ways away would be nice.
Price is a concern - I just dropped $615 on the camera, $130 on a bag for it, and I'd like to pick up a tripod and a remote for it as well. So the cheaper the lens the better.
So, any suggestions for a starter zoom lens?
Thanks in advance
EDIT: Wow, I just realized that I also have absolutely no idea where to shop for camera accessories online.
Also, is this lens worth considering?
