Thanks so much for responding! At least I can rest easy on the purchase of the Sigma lens.

I have tried using various editors.. Uggh.. TOO complicated for a novice, so I Totally agree with you! I will check out your links. I know I can trust a fellow photo bug!

I want to be comfortable with it by Christmas; so I need to GET Crackin! YOU'RE RIGHT.. I just want to enjoy my new Eyes!! lol (the knowledge will come)

Thanks Again,
Cindy

My name is Cindy, and I just got the Canon Rebel t3 with a telephoto lens (Sigma 18-200mm) and 3 filters.

I've been an unhappy point and shoot novice, and dreamed of a DSLR. Hubby picked this one. I am very overwhelmed with learning everything about how to use it with and without the telephoto lens.

CONFUSED #1: Some say you can only use a CANON lens?? but this one fits the body. How do I make sure I am getting full use of the Zoom by Sigma?

Confused #2 - I am also confused on which photo editor to use. The one with the camera confusing. I need a very USER Friendly software. Any suggestions?

I can't afford and don't have the time to go to a photography class, What did the rests of you use?

This is just a hobby for now, just to take great pics.
THANKS, and HELLO TO ALL PHOTO BUGS!!
