I am saving to buy my first dslr camera, and so am looking at camera bundles. I have researched third party sellers that frequently sell on Walmart.com and Amazon.com, have seen a few bundles I am interested in, and am now trying to decide which to go with, that would best suit my needs. The camera I have pretty much decided on, is the Canon EOS Rebel SL2. The kit lenses on the bundles I have seen are:
18-55mm, 70-300 mm.
18-55mm and 75-300mm. These first two are from authorized, reliable(so I have heard) third party seller-camera stores.
18-55mm, 75-300mm, and 50mm lenses, from Costco.com
18-55mm and 55-250mm from a local camera store.
I'm finding I enjoy macro photography, especially flowers, butterflies, bees,(when I can catch them with my superzoom Canon Power Shot
XS520HS. I also enjoy landscape photography, and taking photos of my dog.
Any helpful input would be much appreciated.
Thank you very much,

Of those packages I would go with the 18-55mm, 70-300 mm one.
Unfortunately neither lens is really a macro.
But a small extension tube or a diopter on the front can solve that matter easily and economically. Especially the diopter as a good one will do quite well and yes I have used them frequently.
