wanting to get into astrophotography i did my research and found out the samyang 10mm f 2.8 would be a pretty good lens for my maybe not so good camera, nikon d3300. However it seems i somehow bought the "cine" version of the lens. which has a T number of 3.1 instead of an F number of 2.8. I...

I have a Nikon D5100, what I use for shooting videos. I've got a 18-55mm lens but, lately I'm starting to feel the need to buy new lenses. Sometimes I have to shoot my videos in small spaces (like in a small room), so I thought I'd buy a Tokina AT-X PRO 116 11-16mm F/2.8 DX II AF Lens. I read...

Hi, I bought used Sigma 24mm f/1.8 EX DG Macro for Nikon from eBay. I am worried because front element is little bit loose. So it moves sideways and makes a rattling sound when I shake it gently sideways. It works well with camera and takes ok photos in my books. There is little ding in lens...

Hi there! I wanted to know what is your favorite everyday lens. I have a few Nikon lenses I use but I feel like I need a new one that I don't need to be switching often. One with decent zoom and not a hassle to travel with. I have two prime lenses and the kit ones. Any suggestions? Jackie

Hi forum, I am speculating which lens I should by for my A58. The kit one is ok, but I need more zoom for a reasonable price. I purchased a SAL55300 from Amazon.de, whilst it was on sale and I have to say it kind of disappointed me. The image quality is pretty ok, but the lens is a real...

I currently own the 24-105 f4L, the nifty fifty, and the 135mm f2L. I really can't decide between the Sigma 35mm 1.4, Canon 85mm 1.8 or the 70-200mm f4. At this point, I feel that all of them would be useful in some way! I really like the idea of having the 85/135 set up for weddings, but at the...
