The Tiffen lens are good and that is a decent price for them.

Ok, they are both great lenses, but they are different. The Raynox DCR-250 (2.5x) is roughly a +8 diopter lens (no more than a +10) and the Canon 58mm 250D (1.5x if I remember correctly) is a +4...

This is true.

It is probably best to set a budget as a first step. A budget with a latitude of a couple of hundred dollars might be easier. Then the easiest way to find a camera is to select...
