Well since you bought that filter, get out a tripod, stop the lens down, take pictures of rivers or forests.

I'm still stuck between buying some filters for my kit lens, or selling the 55-250 and getting the tamron 17-50 w/ filters. [QUOTE=rieda1589;30187348][img]http://bbrks.me/i/Rxo.png[/img] Can't tell if serious.[/QUOTE] I don't think it's the right currency. I did what you did a while back when Nonikai was discussing something else.

thinking about getting the camileo x100, but it has no external mic port i wanted to use it alongside a zoom h1 is this plausible?
yes, but you'll need to sync the audio based on the built in audio and you can't timecode sync
[QUOTE=plazzydan;30193718]thinking about getting the camileo x100, but it has no external mic port i wanted to use it alongside a zoom h1 is this plausible?[/QUOTE] It's possible to sync but in practice it's too difficult and will make your editing process extremely long.
clapperboards
Yes but for a lot of things I doubt he will have the convenience of using them.
small clapperboards :downsbravo:
Is a 50mm 1.4 worth the extra money over a 1.8?
yes.
B-Hazard - want my 50mm?
[QUOTE=AshMan55;30198336]Is a 50mm 1.4 worth the extra money over a 1.8?[/QUOTE] Very much so, especially if it's a Nikon 50mm f/1.4.
[QUOTE=Roll_Program;30198896]Very much so, especially if it's a Nikon 50mm f/1.4.[/QUOTE] My 50 1.8 hath been insulted sir! :(
[QUOTE=Roll_Program;30198896]Very much so, especially if it's a Nikon 50mm f/1.4.[/QUOTE] What would be a better choice then. Canon or Sigma?
[QUOTE=AshMan55;30199754]What would be a better choice then. Canon or Sigma?[/QUOTE] You might also want to look at the sigma 30mm f1.4 if you think 50mm is too narrow
[QUOTE=AshMan55;30199754]What would be a better choice then. Canon or Sigma?[/QUOTE] The sigma 50mm f/1.4 is better than the Canon, but is a bit more expensive.
[QUOTE=Roll_Program;30199936]The sigma 50mm f/1.4 is better than the Canon, but is a bit more expensive.[/QUOTE] Seems to be cheaper from what I can find. [editline]3rd June 2011[/editline] Although some places it's more expensive.
Question number 2, would it be better to get a small starter lens with my D3000 or get something with more oompf?
Of course a better lens would be better, but just learn with the kit lens, then figure out what you want from your next lens.
Hey guys, I'm in dire need of a flash for my 450D. Anyone know of one that's good sub 200?
Sigma EF-530 DG SUPER.
Cheapest one on Amazon is 230 used, the Nikon for whatever reason is 160 though. Any other viable options? I'm considering the [url=http://www.amazon.com/Sigma-EF-610-Electronic-Digital-Cameras/dp/B00472OBDE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1307066576&sr=8-1]Sigma 610 Super[/url] but I'm not sure how it compares to the 530 or the [url=http://www.amazon.com/Canon-Speedlite-II-Digital-Cameras/dp/B001CCAISE/ref=pd_cp_p_1]Canon 430EX II speedlight[/url] And 10 bucks more for their newest flash brand new doesn't seem so terrible either. But I want to hear what anyone else thinks.
So today I got a used Nikon D40 with an 18-55mm lens, did I choose well?
