I agree with dimarco. Start with the 50mm f/1.8 fixed lens. It's good quality for the price. The real professional lenses cost between 900 and 1600 dollars. Fixed ones are cheaper. Zoom are more expensive.
Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 II Camera Lens $99.95 -- if you buy this, you MUST buy the UV filter http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00007E7JU?ie=UTF8&tag=...
UV filter (protects lens' glass): Tiffen 52mm UV filter $9.95 -- goes with the Canon EF 50mm lens (trust me; this is the correct size filter) http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00004ZCJG?ie=UTF8&tag=...
