Seriously, as long as your camera came with a battery and charger and you bought a card to put the images on, you really don't need anything else.
Go out and enjoy using your camera and learn how it functions.
This, for sure.
I bought a Nikon D5600 3 months ago with the same lens kit... it's a great range of focal lengths.
Yes, the more seasoned photographers will suggest better lenses, but they cost a fortune. Take your time and read the manual, learn your camera's functions and take hundreds of pictures. Print a few of your favorites and share them with family and friends. That's what I've been doing and its great!

It's important as photographers that we show our best work. Let's use the various tools available to us for straightening crooked horizons, cropping out unwanted and/or distracting subjects, sharpening, adjusting white balance, and giving our photographs some "pop."
I've watched excellent tutorials by professional photographers around the world who share their editing secrets. We don't have to run out and buy PhotoShop or Lightroom though... there are many free programs and smartphone apps that will do the job!

A friend of mine just bought a used pancake lens for his D7200. He was wondering... does he have to use genuine maple syrup with it or will Mrs. Butterworth's be OK?
