Hello, I have another question for you folks.
As some of you may remember, I posted here not too long ago asking for advice on my first SLR camera. I have since been to numerous camera stores, talked to the staff and handled both Canon and Nikon SLRs. I have researched extensively and ultimately decided to go with the XTi. I still have yet to make the purchase, but the XTi felt right in my hands.
Just today my mother told me that she has an ancient Nikon SLR from the 80s (Nikon FG), and with this Nikon came a lens. I'm still not completely lens savvy, so I'm not exactly sure of the kind. It says Toshiba 52mm SL-1A. It also says Nikon Lens Series E 50mm 1:1.8. Is this a decent lens? My mum's trying to push Nikon on me now, I think she wants me to use this lens. I'm not so sure it's worth it.
