welcome to photography~ im pretty sure you going to shoot from anything to everything for this month! 

100% comes with

I almost sell my SELP1650 kit lens, but later found it to be quite good for travel and event use,
especially when there is no time to change lens.

Here are some of my shots taken with SELP1650 for your reference.

I'm using the Beike Q-555 tripod, transformable to monopod, around 1.2kg.

try this link http://www.gstrapinuse.com/index.php?main_...dex&cPath=89_34

they are fair price..  I had bought 2 tripod from them..  and the service is fast too.

From my experience, do consider getting slightly better ones than the low range (like what I did initially - that is why i ended up with 2)..

the extra weight difference is not really that significant. It will not add that much more  relative to carrying a 3 kg lens. but the difference in performance is quite noticeable. Unfortunately you will not notice it until you get the wrong one out in the filed!!! (too late then) More so when you load the tripod with long lens.  IF you are just shooting family photo then not much issue.  But if you intend to double it for macro and long lens then best to get the better  ones.  I wanted the Q666 and ended up with Q777 no stock but no regret since they offer me the same price, only slightly shorter..

these are my experience and still learning, but others will differ.  Happy hunting.

Guys..

Still playing around with kit lens, yet if have 35mm f1.8 will be better on toy photography i think.

Didn't know bbcode can be used, because previously was using html and link type.
One question on toy photography, i want to take closer picture but kit lens 1650 seen a bit hard to do it.
Is there any lens special for toy photography?
