Lens question

[spaz2145]

or you could go to a camera store and ask them what size and try some on...

I've been searching for hours, but considering this is my first camera and I'm 14 and don't understand any of it, it is like another language, which is why I asked here

Jeepers. Look here.

And then look at the 9th result.

Also, it's a forum. Not a chat room. It will take more than ten minutes for people to respond.

Thanks. Jeepers is a funny word and can you send an exact link because theres a few ways that the 9th entry can be interputed( because there are store ads in the middle that may change ) thanks

For the love of...READ THE PAGE. The filter size is clearly stated in the synopsis of the link. If you can't bother to read through what you might think is the eighth, ninth, and tenth links just to be sure you find the one I'm talking about, then you're just being incredibly lazy.

also no camera stores where I am. Only Best Buy ( they don't know much about cameras even in the camera department)

as i said to her I don't know what most of this means I'm just trying to learn and I'm not exactly sure what to look for besides the words "filter size" (which I can't seem to find in the 9th 10th 11th links)

I hate to say it but.......Read your users manual. If you don't have the users manual you can download it from Nikon.
