What lenses do you have for your camera?  | | Hello again guys!
I'm into digital photography for over 4 years now, though the last 2 years havent been so active but i still go out and take pics here and there. There are times where you need to take a shot and you just can't compose it that well with a normal 28-55mm kit lens. So, then you have to look into the special lenses the manufacturers have to offer.
All the lenses have some special quality and boy sometimes they have a price tag.
What kind of lenses do you own for you digital or analog SLR camera and why did you buy them?
Happy Shooting:)

Zooms lens tend to loose quality down the tube.. usually they'll have a specific point where they are super sharp and another point where they are really bad..
u should always choose urs according to ur use...

antarcticpostcards (419) | 3 months ago | I do not have much of issue of losing quality with my zoom lense at least in comparison to digital zoom cameras, which very noticably stink when zoomed a lot. Yes, even with a zoom lense some quality is lost, but the closer up nature of the photo can easily make up for that, especially when used to get rid of distracting things in the foreground. You cannot always just move closer to the object.

| | 2. antarcticpostcards (419) | 3 months ago | I have a Nikn DSLR camera. I have the normal 18-55mm lense it came with. I also have a 70-200mm lense that I paid only $10 cash (rest was a gift card) for because I wanted expedited shipping. It is not vibration reduction like they have now, but it is better than the manual focus one I was using from my dad's old manual camera, as I have eye problems that makes it almost impossible for me to notice the correct focusing until I later see it bigger on the computer and am like yeah that was not in focus. I have tried my dad's new lenses with vibration reduction and it is cool for the larger lense, but not really needed for the small lense. Also, the new designs of the Nikon DSLR lenses are not as user friendly, especially not being able to easily spin them to adjust zoom, as I often photograph one handed and zoom adjust just with my chin and cannot do that with the new ones.

| laserfllight (18) | 3 months ago | One thing i dont like about Nikons is that they are really bulky. They are too much. i guess ok for studio work but when you are out with a flash unit and then sometimes a vertical grip, the weight goes well near 2 kilos.. you really need alot of strength to carry around that weight...

antarcticpostcards (419) | 3 months ago | I actually like the weight of them (by the way I never use anything beyond the built in flash and even that rarely as I prefer natural light or room lighting balanced with filters sometimes). It is part of their bulkiness that makes them such indestructable and reliable cameras. Too many people I know have had a lot of issues even with good care of other brands. I have never had any serious problems with my Nikons even though I treat them rough, have dropped them a lot even on concrete, and even took it wild caving once and got it covered in mud.

| laserfllight (18) | 3 months ago | hmmm . no experience with them but my pentax is quite heavy with a flash unit and i never had maintenance problem with it either..
Actually you should try using an external flash unit. Trust me on this one! when u play with it a little bit and know how the light frm it works, it works wonders. And teh picture quality increses by folds... sometimes we even used multiple flash units pointing at our subject or up at the roof or a wall in sync with the one on our camera body, so they all fired in sync and man the quality was wonderful.
Happy Shooting:)

antarcticpostcards (419) | 3 months ago | I am totally against using flash unless I need it to keep the photo from being blurry. I much prefer the results for the type of photography I like to do.
