Beginer confused on the lens types...

OESPI22

Hello Moose,

I just bought a new Nikon D5100 with a 18-55mm AF-S VR DX lens. I have a tripod the camera and the lens no flash just the one on the camera. I am excited to start using it but not sure about the different types of lenses. I have been reading through the threads (which by the way are great) and saw there are different types of lenses for different types of shots. What I will mostly be using mine for is children, outdoor shooting and maybe some videos. My budget is somewhere between $200-$350 for right now and If I get better maybe invest on more lenses in the future. THANKS!!!
