After long sleepless nights i decide to invest a little more (190 usd).
So i got the Canon 300D, it came with a Canon Lens 28-80 mm, now I have to think on a pair of lenses, macro and telephoto...

Any suggestion?

Congrats and welcome to team 300D! :-) You'll love the camera - take lots of pics and make sure to share. :-)

I really like my Canon 75-300mm lens - I don't have a macro yet, but it's on my list.

105mm Sigma. Very nice. I love mine.

edit to correct myself. Sigma/not Canon on that one.

Thanks. ;)

Good for you!I like my Sigma 70-300mm f4-5.6 macro super2, Very inexpensive and not bad shots with it.Sigma 105EX f2.8 is very good for macro and portraits a wee bit more expensive but good value for your dollar!

Sample 1 - Handheld
Sample 2 - Handheld
Sample 3 - The fountain was more than 10 miles than away (as the crow flies) and this was taken on the tripod.
Sample 4 - Handheld
Sample 5 - Handheld

I use the lens a lot, but not always at full zoom. These were the ones I could think of at 300mm, all are straight from the camera only resized/cropped.

All between 250-300mm. Sometimes I zoomed out just a little to get the composition better, but pretty much fully zoomed in. They are all handheld except the water-splash one.
