Canon EOS 1000d lens

[redstar1]

Bought one of the above a while ago and got it with the packaged lens, a 18-55mm.

Haven't used it a lot so far but hoping to get some experience up to and during a holiday planned shortly.

Want to pick up one or more lenses to complement the 18-55, especially for landscape photography, mountains/lakes etc.

Any advice for what to look for?

Thanks guys.

I think the issue is that I've been using the camera more or less exclusively for charity events, so taking photos of people dressed up etc. When I have tried to do some landscape pictures, I haven't been blown away, although my photography skills are still fairly basic.

Buying Canon's most expensive lens will not make the slightest difference unless you work on the rest of it i'm afraid.

I've maybe given the wrong impression. What I was disappointed with was not the quality of any of the photos but the 'zoom' I suppose, or the lack of clarity on anything in the distance.

I'm not looking to win any prizes, or show off photos to anyone. Purely for personal collection etc.
