How to figure out which Morphs to buy?

Hello, I have decided to pick up Daz3D for research purposes. I need to get some morphs: aging, body size, non-adults. 
 

I decided to work with genesis 8 since I want a high-quality model that resembles humans as much as possible.

For the aging morph, I'm considering: https://www.daz3d.com/aging-morphs-bundle-for-genesis-8-female-s-and-male-s
There doesn't seem to be any alternative options. So this seems rather straightforward. 

For the body size morph, there are several options in the shop (eg. Body Diversity: https://www.daz3d.com/body-diversity-morphs-for-genesis-8-females; Shape Shift: https://www.daz3d.com/shape-shift-for-genesis-8-female-s) Are there any resources out there that will aid in my decision-making process? Or is there a famous one that I should just buy because it's undoubtedly the best? 

Lastly, for non-adults, there seems to be the option of this (Growing Up: https://www.daz3d.com/growing-up-bundle-for-genesis-8-female-s-and-male-s). Alatnerively, there also seems to be independent models sold separately. If I buy Growing Up, for instance, how do I know if I can adjust the kid to become chubby or give really skinny waist, etc?) 

 

Thank you.

    All Daz figures have "base" Daz Originals head a body morphs packs. They're usually the first ones people buy when starting with a figure. Here are the ones for G8:

    Additional morph sets by various artists bring you even more options and are definitely useful too.

    You can combine morphs from various packs, or even various charactersfor the same figure. That's how you'd would a skinny kid, for example: you can use the growing up morphs with a "skinny" morph (or a combination of morphs) from some other set(s).

    Which sets you may want to get depends on what you want to do.

    For example, the Shape Shift set you pointed to gives you lots of "local" morphs to adjust each bodypart independently, so you'll use it if you want a lot of control of each area.

    A set like Body Diversity includes full body shapes you can use as a starting point for a given body type.

    Thank you very much, Leana, for the detailed explanations!

    I now have a much better understanding of this.
