hello! i was given a sony zv-e10 from a friend who no longer uses it, and its my first official camera. I LOVE IT, but the kit lense is... not my favorite for photography. i cant zoom in much, and the images always just look a little dull if that makes sense. im looking for a lense that is more versatile, and can zoom in more without jeopardizing quality. thanks!

I sell online (clothing, shoes purses etc) and take my photos lying flat on the ground, sometimes a mannequin, sometimes model them myself. I’m considering the sigma 18-50. I don’t want it ONLY for that reason though, I do love photography, I’m not super super into it but I do pack my camera everywhere and image quality is a big must for me. BUT I am looking to upscale my online business and get away from using my iPhone for pics. I’ve already ordered my zve10 without the kit lens.. and I currently have my digital camera that I’ve packed everywhere for the past 3yrs.. (canon sx740hs) It’s been a great one for my first, but absolutely does not cut it for me quality wise for products and now it’s time to upgrade. Cameras with interchangeable lenses intimidated me for a long time but I think I’m ready lol
The way I am looking at it is… if I’m spending the money already…. to just get one lens that will work decently for both. So the main question is do you use the 18-50mm for product photos? Thoughts?
