I was considering getting a $450.00 DSLR but instead decided to get a $85.00 lens kit for my kodak Z 710..non SLR to get the feel of things before spending more money. The kit has 3.5 telephoto lens, 52mm wide angle lens ,and 4 filters wich I havnt tried yet..
After I bought this I was advise that it probably was a waste of money but now that I have the kit I'm going to try everything I can ,then once I have an idea what a DSLR will do better I can get one with my saved up airmiles . I'll ask opinions here before buying ..
Now my question I have today is when I installed my 3.5 telephoto lens and used my cameras zoom at the same time ,everything is blurry. Is this because the camera with it's 10X zoom is making the add on 3.5 useless when used with my cameras zoom? In other words if I set my camera to about 3.5 zoom vs screwing on the add on 3.5 lens I'd get the same effect? ( leaving my camera in the non zoom position)
