You have the most creative company name I have come across in this business. (Which is not to say I'm experienced, it's to say your name is fantastic.)



And seeing as I'm in film production I may actually have something to contribute here. In case you haven't, I would recommend checking out B&H Photo. They are based out of NY City, but ship world wide. They usually have decent prices, and more importantly, different packages to suit customer needs. Their website is www.bhphotovideo.com



My personal opinion is that you will save money if you buy a package all at once instead of buying individual parts, but there are always sales and things, so it's pretty circumstantial.



As far as the actual lens, my understanding is that something between 40mm to 55mm (a standard lens), would suit your needs just fine. Most of your subject matter will be close up, so anything larger than 55mm is probably a bit superflous.



Hope that helps.
