First, please let me apologize for my lack of proper vocabulary. 😃

I have a Canon EOS R50 with the stock 18 to 45 lens.

I need a stronger telephoto capability, to take bird pictures, the moon, get that lone oak tree out in a field etc. There are devices that one can place between the lens and the body to <<telephoto more>>, right? Would it be better to get one of these or to buy another whole lens? I am assuming the adapter would be less expensive. Money is a factor. (isn’t it always?)

    Lastly I would suggest you consider used gear.

    I second this, buy used. Out of the 10 ish lenses I own, I’ve only bought two of them new. I almost only use my second hand gear 😅 I also bought my current camera body used, as well as my camera sling bag! There’s so much money to be saved by looking at the second hand marked you wouldn’t believe it.
