For beginners in photography, a friend suggested Canon 600D but I don’t know which lens to choose?

For general requirements, it is not recommended to buy professional lenses, that is, red circle lenses, the price is basically around five digits.

If you want to shoot landscapes, the kit lens, commonly known as the dog head, 18-55, is very cost-effective and can basically meet your various needs for shooting landscapes. This is the lens I use. If it is used well, it will be great for shooting. There are many good landscape films.

When taking portraits, it is not recommended to use 18-55 because the image quality is really not good. It is recommended to use at least 50 1.8. The price is around 600. This imaging can basically meet the general shooting needs. If you have higher requirements for imaging quality, you can consider 50 1.4, the price is around 3,000, and if it is higher, it is 50 1.2, which is 10,000 yuan.

For telephoto, you can try 55-250 first, then around 1600. However, it is recommended to consider buying a second-hand lens for this lens. You can buy a 95% new one for 800-900, which is more cost-effective.

For beginners, it is better to learn some techniques first and lay a solid foundation. The lens is not the most important, but the head behind the lens is important.
