If you’ve just bought a brand new digital SLR camera, congratulations to you! You now have at your disposal some equipment to capture fantastic and creative photos.

But wait … what about a set of lenses to go with that digital SLR? A digital SLR without lenses isn’t going to live up to its potential.

And that’s where a lot of budding photographers hit a wall. Digital camera lenses are a difficult topic to master. When I first started out in digital SLR photography, I remember reading several guides on camera lenses and I still came away pretty confused as to what lens kits I needed.

If you’ve been spending hours trying to understand camera lenses, please STOP. I’ve done all that research for you – and consolidated all the tips I know into an eBook called the “Digital Camera Lens Buying Guide”.
 

"All You Ever Wanted To Know
About Buying Camera Lenses"

Digital camera lenses do not come cheap. You buy a lens and expect it to meet your photography needs and last a long time. You must make sure you do proper research before shelling out cash.

What you usually do is to check out the gazillion reviews and tips on the Internet about the latest and greatest lens. Or we might ask a few friends about their recommendations.

Well, the truth is, there is a essential body of knowledge about buying lenses that every consumer MUST know. I reveal it all in my eBook.

Here’s what you stand to gain from this knowledge:

• You’ll make a better purchase decision because you will thoroughly consider your needs before shelling out cash
   
• You’ll learn the basics of camera lenses – standard, wide-angle, telephoto, zoom versus prime, macro, fish-eye, shift and split field
   
• You’ll learn what specific lens type is required under different circumstances
   
• You’ll learn to ask the correct questions and systematically assess your photography needs before choosing a lens, instead of “randomly” choosing the fanciest lens out in the market
   
• You’ll learn about the factors that influence the price of a camera lens
   
• You’ll learn to save money by buying only the lens you need. For example, there’s no need to invest in telephoto lenses if you’re doing mostly standard photography work.
   
• You’ll learn how to differentiate good camera lens deals from bad ones
   
• You’ll save yourself time and money – there’s no need to read photography textbooks or attend photography workshops to learn about lenses. Read my tips and get started with your first lens kit right away.
   
• You’ll take away the “mystery” behind camera lenses once and for all.
   
• You’ll learn about the most popular lenses from Canon, Nikon, Sigma, Tamron, etc. that photographers are queuing up to buy at the store and whether it make sense for you to buy the same
   
• You’ll learn about great bargains for camera lenses which the camera store owner won’t tell you about
   

Understanding the basic types of camera lenses available out there and how they can be applied to different scenarios is a critical skill in photography.

Once you understand the basic lens types, researching and buying a lens no longer becomes “random”. You’ll be able to systematically look for the exact lens you need to fit the specific photography situation you’re in.

Here’s what I will teach you about camera lens types in my eBook:

• You’ll learn about all types of camera lenses – standard, wide-angle, telephoto, zoom versus prime, macro, fish-eye, shift and split field
   
• You’ll understand under which circumstances you need a specific type of lens.
   
• You’ll take time to systematically assess your photography needs before choosing a lens, instead of “randomly” choosing the fanciest lens out in the market. For example, do you shoot indoors or outdoors? Do you take pictures of closer things or farther things? Do you take photos of fast moving objects (i.e. action, sports)?
   
• You’ll learn how to categorize camera lenses by their focal length – e.g. 50 mm for 50mm for a standard lens, less than 50mm for a wide-angle lens and greater than 50mm for a telephoto lens
   
• You’ll learn the difference between lenses from Canon, Nikon and other camera manufacturers versus third-party lenses from Sigma and Tamron.
   
• You’ll learn to distinguish between a constant-aperture zoom lens versus a variable-aperture zoom lens and understand their pros and cons
   
• You’ll learn about how big an aperture you need in a camera lens
   
• You’ll learn why ultra-wide zoom lens have advantages over a prime super-wide-angle lens.
   

Having a good camera lens is one thing. Understanding how it can help you take good photos is something else.

In my years in photography, I’ve seen many people with top-of-the-line camera lenses costing thousands of dollars and the latest digital SLRs take some very bad photos.

And I’ve seen others who have simpler and cheaper lenses and camera take some fantastic and creative photos.

Photography is NOT about how expensive your gear is. It is about understanding lighting and composition, and how your gear can help you adapt light to fit any photographic situation.

By following the tips in my eBook, you will learn how you can use camera lenses to your advantage and take some spectacular photos. Here are the benefits of you’ll stand to gain:

• You’ll finally be confident and adept at applying the correct lenses for any photographic situation, just like the professionals
   
• You’ll learn why camera lenses with bigger apertures are useful for taking photos in poor lighting conditions and creating a shallow depth of field
   
• You’ll learn which aperture sizes in a lens are useful for indoor, outdoor, sports, action and other photography scenarios
   
• You’ll learn how image stabilization (IS) in a lens acts as a “virtual tripod” for your camera and its pros and cons
   
• You’ll learn how image stabilization in a camera lens helps you reduce the need for larger aperture while taking pictures in low light.
   

In their haste, many people will rush out to a lens that does really not meet their needs. Worse, they often pay a large sum for this first lens thinking it will guarantee them better photos.

DO NOT fall into this trap! Your first lens should be something that you can grow into and use to learn advanced photography skills. Once you’re more comfortable with lenses, then you can move on to purchase more expensive, advanced lenses.

In my eBook, I’ll show you some of the best “starter kit” lenses which you can use to jumpstart your journey into camera lenses. Don’t waste money on expensive lenses you don’t need!

Here’s the knowledge you stand to gain:

• You’ll learn about 4 “starter” lens kits which are a good way to help get into understanding and using camera lenses for the first time. No need to shell out thousands of dollars at the camera store. Buy a starter lens kit, take your time to grow into it before getting more advanced lenses.
   
• You’ll also receive a set of recommendations for convenience and ”walkaround” lenses, telephoto zooms, ultra-wide zooms, prime and macro lenses. You don’t have to scour the Internet trying to come up with options. Take what has always worked for me and use it to jumpstart your foray into camera lenses
   
• You’ll learn about recommendations for compact, super-convenient lenses which are good if you’re into outdoor shots and are on a budget.
   
• You’ll be able to buy the lens kit you need and immediately start taking pictures
   
• You’ll save yourself hours and hours of research time while your digital SLR sits there doing nothing
   
• You’ll actually start taking pictures and experimenting with your technique – the hallmark of any good photographer – rather than hunting for weeks on end for that “proper” camera lens
   

I totally understand where you’re coming from. Camera lens manufacturers like Canon and Nikon have wrapped their products under such cryptic terminology that it has become very difficult for the novice photographer to “get into” the world of lenses.

For example, what is "bokeh"? And what is an MTF chart? If you’re clueless about these terms, don’t worry. My eBook will help you understand advanced lens terminology so that you will never be lost when reading about lenses again.

Here are some sample benefits you’ll receive from my eBook:

• You’ll learn about basic lens terminology like apertures, f-stops and image stabilization
   

• You’ll learn about the "bokeh" of a camera lens and the difference between "good bokeh" and "bad bokeh"
   

• You’ll learn about the diaphragm blades of a lens and why they are important
   

• You’ll learn the key terms related to camera lenses so you'll never be lost when conversing with a sales person or an expert photographer
   

• You’ll learn what a teleconverter is and how it can extend the focal length of your lens
   

• You’ll learn how to read an MTF chart that gives you a visual representation of how well a lens performs
   

Too many novice photographers out there step into a camera store, totally uninitiated, and start asking the sales person about which lens to buy.

Believe me, that is NOT the correct way to purchase a camera lens. You might end up with a lens that’s too expensive or totally unsuited to your needs.

Or, if you’re unlucky, you might end up buying some unknown third-party lens that is of very low quality. That’s the last thing you want.

My eBook will show you tips and tricks on what kind of factors to look out for when buying a camera lens, so that you will be getting value for your money.

Here’s what you’ll gain as a result of this:

• You’ll learn exactly what to look for when buying a lens from the camera store
   

• You’ll be able to hold an intelligent conversation with the salesman from the camera store and tell if he or she is giving you a bad deal
   

• You’ll learn to buy the best and most affordable camera lenses so that you get value for your money
   

• You’ll learn which lenses to buy if you’re on a tight budget and which lenses to buy if you have a bit more cash
