I just picked up a second-hand Canon 6D to start my photography journey. I’m really excited, but the kit came with a massive Tamron zoom lens that weighs a ton.</P><P>I want to focus mainly on landscapes with some portrait work on the side. Can anyone recommend a good "starter" lens that won't break my back (or the bank)?</P><P>Also, if you have any tips or tricks for getting the most out of the 6D, I’d love to hear them. Thanks!</P> Mon, 02 Feb 2026 15:23:16 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Gear-Guide/Finally-joined-the-club-with-a-Canon-6D-Lens-advice-for-a/m-p/585197#M3481 fillion 2026-02-02T15:23:16Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Gear-Guide/Finally-joined-the-club-with-a-Canon-6D-Lens-advice-for-a/m-p/585324#M3482 <P>For a standard zoom lens look into the&nbsp;<STRONG>EF 24-105mm F/3.5-5.6 IS STM&nbsp;</STRONG>lens.
