The End of the Story And now on to camera lenses…I know you’re excited!
Macro 60mm Great for extreme close ups
Zoom (any two #’s) Great for vacations when you don’t want to carry around a lot of lenses with different focal lengths. HINT, there are many types of ZOOM lenses. Wide angle zoom, telephoto zoom, etc. See? This goes from 18-55
Fisheye 10.5mm Has a lot of distortion and it’s a sUUUUper wide angle lens

Telephoto (70mm+ ish) Use this lens when you don’t want to get close to something (like a stinky person), or if you can’t…cause you’ll die…or get run over…or arrested…. Mrs. Johnson’s from Thailand Being very sneaky
