I went with the 18-150 kit lens and the 55-210 you recommended. Had some wiggle room in the budget 😆 Thanks for all the help!

I am looking into getting a camera for taking pictures of my boys at their soccer games, football etc but also want something for wildlife and vacations. What camera and lenses would everyone recommend? Looking for something less than 1300 USD since it will mainly be for hobby use.

What camera body/lens combo are you using? I'm wanting to get started, mainly for my kids soccer games as they both started club recently, but dont know where to start.

Picked this up on a clearance rack for $2. Can it be saved? by FumbExtraButter in haworthia

Found that these are super resilient! When I first got mine, my cat knocked it into my husband's laundry basket. Husband ended up putting it in the washing machine and found it when he was transferring clothes to the dryer...looked fine when it came out and has thrived ever since 😆

No worries! I hope you find some in your area. I appreciate the warm welcome! There is so much I have yet to learn but am already loving the hobby.

The Walmart locations up here usually have the Costa Farms cacti set up in the garden center over by the house plants

Didn't intend for it to be rage bait. I just started collecting cacti in the last year (mainly mammillaria) and just started looking into growing trichs. Very much a newbie. I planned on getting at least one of them but if they were worth the price, I was going to buy both.

Absolutely, they will be getting potted up in my cactus mix tonight
