A friend of mine is buying his first DSLR. He's chosen an entry-levelevel Canon model, and wants to know which lens he should go for.

My advice is to go for a good 70mm prime and an 18-200mm. The former because it's quite good in low light and handy for portraits and the latter as it will give him enormous flexibility and help him figure out what lenses to buy in the future.

He doesn't really know what kind of photography he wants to do yet.

So what do you guys think, good advice or bad — if you could pick two lenses with a buget of 500 quid what would you go for?
