I bought the kit lens, it's good for portraits and all but I would like to buy a lens with better zoom for far away shots. Can someone recommend a good quality zoom lense from about $ 200 - 500 dollars?

Your budget almost reaches the Canon EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM (28-135 equiv.) (April 2007-$515) is a good "walk around" lens at a good price.

Using a Sigma 55mm lens on a Canon 350D that has a 58mm lens fitted..?
matt
Is there some sort of adapter available to size up or down the fitting on a camera to allow a smaller lens to be fitted? I can't afford to buy another lens for my Canon and I love my Sigma on my other camera but would like to use it for digital rather than film photography.. so assumed if an adapter was available it would be considerably cheaper! I've no idea what i'm looking for, i've only found things for changing the size so you can attach a smaller / larger filter so far.
No not at all! I have a Canon camera with a Canon lens and a Minolta camera with a Sigma lens.. So I guess the terminology of what I'm after is the 'mount' part!
Minolta Dynax 2xi is the other camera
and as for the Sigma lens, it says on it Sigma Auto Focus, Aspherical 24-70mm 1:3.5-5.6
Nothing to do with filters! I was merely saying that is all I had found at the time!
So if my understanding is correct my Sigma lens that is currently fitted onto my Minolta camera can be fitted onto my Canon camera with something like this..? http://www.suntekstore.co.uk/Minolta-MD-MC-Lens-to-Canon-EOS-Camera-Body-Adapter-Ring-.html
Answer
Whoa!
Are you saying that you have a Sigma 55 mm lens with an EF Canon lens mount?
It is an older lens since the new Sigma lens in that focal range is the sigma 50mm F1.4 EX DG HSM. It uses 77 mm filters
If this is true, just remove your current lens and replace it with the Sigma lens.
The 58 mm filter thread is just that, the size thread you need when you buy filters for your existing lens.
NOTE: There was a Sigma XQ 55mm f2.8 macro lens was produced in the early 1970s, but that can only be used on Canon cameras made before the Canon EOS cameras were introduced in 1988, the old FD and FL lens types. That manual focus lens uses a 62mm filter
It is a little difficult to answer your question since you are not being very clear.
Are you talking about using different size lenses on your camera or are you asking about using filters of different sizes on your lenses?
