    Nikkor 35mm f1.8 and 50mm F1.8

    Portraits ideally should be shot with atleast 70mm and above. 35mm is too wide for portraits. So 50 F1.4 on a DX becomes 75mm, much better suited for portraits. I had the 50 F1.8 for several weeks but returned it for the 1.4, Its much sharper from F2 onwards. You can find a good used copy in the...

    If you were starting over from scratch.. DX or FX?

    Depends on three things -> your budget -> what do you shoot? -> Are you a pro or not? If you have a decent budget and dont mind spend more for pro features and best of breed quality go FX - D3 is making even the Pros' drool If you shoot birds, nature anything that involves a lot of...

    AF-S 70-300mm VR For Nikon

    Look my 70-300 VR, good contrast and saturation. Fast focus in bright light. And the VR works!! But if your kids are young and keep running around all the time and if you can work with a prime, i would recommend a 85 1.4 (pricey) or a 85 1.8 (lot cheaper).

    D80 auto ISO

    Auto ISO is a big boon, i almost always use it these days. Set min shutter speed based on the situation and max ISO to 800 and set the default ISO to 100.

    Resolution for D3 Vs D300

    I think the lenses they are talking about are not the lenses you attach to the body, but the micro lens which is present in the sensor which concentrate the light on to the sensor.

    Sigma 50mm f1.4 ... HSM....

    Actually, i have used the D40 and the D80 during the recent air show, there was a world of difference for me, since D40 would not focus at all unless the plane is right there on the focus point and given that it has only 3 of them, but D80 helped a lot. I am sure the higher end cameras like the...

    [Feature Discussion] Focus Point Locking on D40/D40X/D60

    If you think that letting the camera decide which subject you are focusing on then it might be easier. Change your AF settings accordingly to let the camera take over. I have a D80, i never had a problem with using the dynamic focus area setting, but 11 focus points definitely help though.
