I just got this Sony a6400 because everyone said it was the best for travel but honestly I am so frustrated right now looking at lenses. I have no idea what any of these numbers mean like what is a 24-70 vs a 16-55 and why are some so expensive?? I spent most of my savings on the camera body and now I realize I cant even take a picture without a lens which sounds so stupid but I really didnt know. Im going to Tokyo in three weeks and I just want one thing I can keep on the camera the whole time. I dont want to carry a bag of glass around or be switching things out every five minutes while im trying to eat ramen.

My budget is pretty tight maybe 400 or 500 dollars tops if I push it. I looked online and there are like a thousand options and people are arguing about sharpness and aperture and I dont even know what those words mean half the time. I just want my photos to look better than my iPhone 13. Is there just like one do everything lens that isnt gonna break my bank account or my back?

I'm super satisfied with Sony E 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS. It has better zoom than the Sony E PZ 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6 OSS, tho the kit lens is definitely a bit lighter.
