I have a 10 year old grandson that I am trying to interest in photography. I have an old Nikon D75s body that I would let him have. However, I don't have an "extra" lens that I am willing to let him have for the camera. What would be a good economical used lens to buy? I'm thinking the should start out with a fixed lens and then move up to a zoom lens once he has learned how to use the camera. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks.
No one has mentioned an iPhone, but your grandson would more appreciate that than a traditional camera at this moment, so perhaps you would discuss it with him and get him the model that he wants as that is what his friends will be using. By getting him what he prefers he is not going to put it in a drawer and only brings it up when you next visit his family. The grandchildren think that we don't know what they do.
Even on this forum, I have seen some good photos produced by the Iphone. Just another thought.
