Aaarrrggghhh. Just pulled my camera bag to me and didnt notice I had left it undone, camera fell out and lens came away. Luckily no damage to camera, but my kit lens has broke - 2 of the 3 plastic sticky out bits (technical name) which attach the lens to body/cap have come off. It seems quite a neat break and am tempted to superglue on, but worried about the impact that would have, can just see repeated bouts of taking lens on and off leading to lens falling off!!
Any ideas what to do, and any ideas what to get as a possible replacement?
Have a nifty fifty and 70-300VR, so need something 17ish through to 55/70/100 ish.
Do I get the same again at around £200, useful lens I have to admit and used much of the length, or Nikon 18-70mm f3.5-4.5 G AF-S DX Lens which seems to be £100 more despite not having VR???, or the 17-50 Tamron 2.8?
Would like to keep as close to £300 as possible. Mostly used on my son (1 year old) indoor and out, as well as general photography.
