Are these lenses any good? (for 35mm camera) November 21, 2009 | 07:09 pm

Alex

I'm looking for a wide-angle lens and a fish-eye lens of some sort for a Canon Rebel G. I'm not sure if they make real lenses for this thing or if this is just how they are for older cameras.

Are any of these decent?

Just got a Nikon D40 - are these lenses any good? September 26, 2009 | 06:38 pm

Alex

I just bought a Nikon D40 which I'm very happy with it. I wan't to buy a wide angle and a telephoto lense and see some great deals on lenses on Ebay. I'm a little hesitant to buy them off of Ebay because I'm afraid they will be junk quality.

Here are some examples of what's out there:

I am by no means an expert in photography and would appreciate your input as to what to look for in a lens and what makes a good lens vs. a crap lens.

thanks in advance!

Digital camera wide angle lenses Canon EOS 20D? September 23, 2009 | 05:05 am

Alex

Looking for a digital specific wide angle lens ,reasonable quality, cheap price.At the moment I am using my old slr film lenses and of course digital magnifies the lenses by 1.5 this is okay with my 300mm lens making it a 450mm but my 28 has become a 42mm .I would really like something like an 18mm.
Cheers D

Need help with a Nikon D40 digital camera and a wide angle lens? September 20, 2009 | 11:18 am

Alex

I have a Nikon D40 digital camera and bought a wide angle lens. I don't know a lot about photography, I had to use this kind of camera for a job. My photos are supposed to be set for the widest angle for the lens (24mm). Is there a way to set this up using my camera menu? Help! Thanks.

What is a fair price for a used camera and lenses? September 13, 2009 | 02:13 pm

Alex

A friend is offering me a Cannon A-1 35mm camera(about 20 years old)+ several lenses. These include a macro zoom lens and a wide angle lens, as well as a 28-50mm zoom lens and a few others that are just basic lenses. All together about 7 lenses. Also an auto winder attachment, a couple of cable releases, about 12 filters, several lens adapters, a light meter and a bellows. I need to figure out what to offer her, but I don't know what is a fair price. I don't want to cheat either one of us. Does anybody have any idea what would be a fair price to offer for these items. I must have the camera and at least a couple of lenses, along with the cable releases, and at least a couple of filters. So an idea of what to offer for the smaller number of items would also be helpful. Thank you.

Film SLR lenses with digital SLRs? September 5, 2009 | 04:13 am

Alex

I have a Nikon FM2 with the original lens, a wide angle lens and a telephoto lens. I am thinking about maybe buying a digital SLR. Should any of my lenses be interchangeable, or does it depend on specific model or what?

non digital lens for digital canon? and what’s a good wide angle? July 11, 2009 | 10:13 am

Alex

dear friends.
i cannot seem to get a clear understanding about this anywhere..
can you use non-digital canon lenses on a digital canon xti?
how does that work...
and if you feel like suggesting a good wide angle lens it would be much appreciated
a 10-20 or somewhere around that would be awesome! and are non-canon lenses any good?
