The lens corresponds to the price. I think that this should be the first for every beginner, it makes it clear what's what, to feel the difference with more expensive lenses in the future. Macro is fine to shoot, landscapes. I don't recommend it for portraits. Well, this is all conditional, because after two weeks of using such a whale, there will be a desire to take something higher. For example, I took Canon EF 28-135 f/3.5-5.6 IS USM and Canon EF 50 f/1.8 II.
