What are the main differences with this lens? I see the AF-S looks to be a better build quality but what else does it have above the older version? I'm looking for it for my d90 so want to know if it worth the extra £50 or so to get the latest version.

Echoing what has been said above. When i first got mine i was totally disheartened as i couldn't get a decent shot at all, but coming on here and searching through the various raynox threads helped me no end. Manual focus is the only way to use this lens, play about with any object to start...

I was thinking that also about the 50mm prime, that's why i'm asking the advice of the masses!!

I am just about to get back into photography after a hiatus and want some advice on what to buy. I've always been a nikon guy and want to stay this way. I have around £1000 to spend and was looking at a d90 (body only), Tamron 17-50 and 50mm prime (1.8). I'm most intrested in landscape and...

The exact same guy i dealt with when purchasing my d3000. An absolute gent and i was in the shop for about 45 minutes discussing things with him, he was really clued up and friendly. He also pointed me in the direction of a few camera clubs and I am now a member of one. Jessops do get a bad rap...

What are the key differences between the 18-55 kit lens and the 18-70 (apart from the obvious greater focal length).

Anyone else having problems with flickr? When i click on a picture, when it usually brings the image up with the dark border, nothing appears for me in IE. The border shows but none of the images load.

I never knew about stopping down, thats great to know!
