Fantastic place for Newbie....
Hi All,
Was recommeded by a friend on this forum. Had spend an hour or so browsing thru... Wow!!! Lots of information over here. Have already bookmark it. Will stay here as far as i still keen in camera. hur... Have bought a 2nd hand D70 from a friend of mine for a year plus liao. Been useful when travelling. Decided to get some seriousness with this hobby.... Will be purchasing AF-D 50/f1.8 very soon.... After that will be smething like 200mm / 300mm kind. Hopefully can meet up with some folks (laojiao) here to learn more about this hobby. Cheers & Merry Christmas....  |

Welcome to CS.
Just keep reading and practising... As for lens choices, consider carefully and your first choice is a good decent one. |

Re: Fantastic place for Newbie....
What lens(es) have you currently got with your D70? If it's the kit lens 18-70, that should be sufficient to take most shots. Any reason why you need the long reach of a telephoto lens?

Re: Fantastic place for Newbie....
Hi all,
thanks for the warm welcome... ZerocoolAstra, i want (not a must though) a lens that can zoom faraway leh. Many a times when overseas, i required it but don't have the feature. but i know this doesn't come cheap. so got to save up for it. yah... i currently using the 18-70mm, comes with the camera. I no good in this hobby.. i don't mind to hear your opinon. Question: does 200/300mm comes in telephoto? Don't laugh at my question hor... Newbie.. Cheers all... |

Re: Fantastic place for Newbie....
On the cheap, consider either the 55-200 or 70-300.
