Hello!

You should have asked for advice before you bought anything.

This Canon lens was probably the most useless lens you could buy.

You will not have autofocus, aperture control and proper wide angle.
Especially the lack of autofocus will be a problem for a novice like you.

My advice: try to get a Samsung NX 20-50mm lens.

Ha Ha, nice positive start there !!!

In all fairness, i didn't know how how little i knew until i took the plunge !

Buying a samsung lens is out of the question. I've got about £30 Left. Any other suggestions
