Taking off of Adamz:
I started this topic so we could provide ppl with standard/unified answers about what LENS they should get.
My Suggestions:
--------------------------------------------------------------
$-$$$$ = Range you want to spend.
$ = Under $250
$$ = $250 - $400
$$$ = $400 - $700
$$$$ = $700+ $1200
--------------------------------------------------------------
One Lens only:
$ (any body) + N18-55vr
$$ (any body) + N18-105vr
$$$ (any body) + N16-85vr
$$$$ (any body) + N18-200vr
