Picking Better Brains

Okay, here's the whole deal... I bought this:



beacuse it looked like a good camera for around $400, (I had to pawn my Metro...) and I heard in a secretly intercepted cell phone call that it could do this: http://kodak.com/eknec/PageQuerier.jhtml?pq-path=1085&pq-locale=en_US

Now I'm faced with a dilemma... If I want to actually learn how to use the Wee Camera I have purchased, should I run out and grab these now : http://kodak.com/eknec/PageQuerier.jhtml?pq-path=1066&pq-locale=en_US&cameraEkNumber=EKN027036&Visible=false&navCategory=EKN027036

http://kodak.com/eknec/PageQuerier.jhtml?pq-path=264&pq-locale=en_US&cameraEkNumber=EKN027036&Visible=false&navCategory=EKN027036

or meditate on the camera itself until I figure out what ISO really is.... I guess the question is will the lenses speed or complicate the learning curve of someone who was literally born yesterday¿ (world's first undisclosed cloning)

JMHO... Neither, I should think. They're fun, especially the wide angle.

The only way they could slow you down is by making you lazy about trying to compose a good shot.

But if having them encourages you to shoot more and experiment more, then they'll speed-up your learning process.

If you can only get one, I'd suggest the wide angle - I've found that mine gets a ton more use than the tele.
