No, my first DSLR was an Olympus, I've never owned a film camera before. I'm not quite that easily confused ;) Thanks for the welcome guys, I haven't received the camera yet, it's in the post as we speak. But I'm excited to get started! I'll post some pics as soon as I think I've something...

Hi! My first adventure into film photography, and I've just bought the following: Olympus OM10, Olympus Zuiko 50mm f1.8, Vivitar 75-205f3.8, 2x tele converter, Manual adapter, plus leather case, strap, lens caps. And paid the pricely sum of £59. I bought this on a whim as I was...

Sorry for the confusion, I already use the 18-105mm as my standard zoom. I don't normally need any greater focal length than that as I just zoom with my feet. But in the city a wide angle would be really helpful as I can only get so far away from a building. I'm thinking of buying the prime...

Hello again! So, I have my new Nikon D300 arriving tomorrow and in the spirit of having a new body, I've decided I would like a new lens or two. I only have around £400 max, but I would quite like a wide angle (for landscapes/cityscapes) somewhere in the region of 10-20mm and a prime (for...

I actually quite like the camera being a bit bigger for some reason, I don't carry a lot of gear around with me, so it isn't to much of a factor. The sturdier the camera feels, the more I like to use it as I am rather accident prone! I can't seem to find the D7000 in my price range...

Thanks for the responses! I was completely happy with the IQ from the D5000 to be honest, so the fact that they all share the same sensor didn't bother me too much. The reason I didn't include the D5100 was because it was smaller than my current one, and I wanted something that felt a bit...

Hi guys, I currently have a Nikon D5000. I've had it for 19 months but the wear and tear is beginning to show. So as replacements my options are limited because of budget restraints. I have around £650 to spend. I'm just replacing the body so sticking with Nikon. For this I've come up...
