Stingray 9,441 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Get the 70-300mm. 55-300 isn't bad at all, but 70-300 mm is amazing and the best you can find, other than professional lenses of course. Also I'd say get the 35mm f/1.8 prime, it's cheap and probably the greatest value for money in camera lens history. It's unbelievably good for the price point. Plus having a prime lens forces you to think hard about composition. Def helps improve your photography skills, it did for me. Cheers mate! I haven't actually thought about a prime lens. I've just done a bit of reading on them and I think it'll be next on the list! Prime lenses take you to a new place when shooting! Must do :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mak 4,459 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Prime lenses take you to a new place when shooting! Must do :-)Well, the more I read the more I think I'll just get a prime lens for the time being. It says they're much better for portrait shots and the main reason I'm buying a good camera is because of my 1 year old, so I think I'll do that instead!

If that's what you'll be mainly shooting I definately recommend a prime lens!You can go to really low f/stops which gives you this awesome shallow depth of field like here:http://500px.com/photo/54010974?from=favorites/yuvalaloni1 (f/2)http://500px.com/photo/53416726?from=favorites/yuvalaloni1 (f/2.2)http://500px.com/photo/26560651 (f/2.2)http://500px.com/photo/47897768 (f/1.2)You get it ..The only problem is that you dont have zoom, but I guess you can work your way around it.. and u also have the kit lens right?

I'll definitely be getting one as soon as possible so. And it turns out that Nikon are actually doing a £20 cashback on their 35mm prime lens at the moment! Yeah, I made sure to get the kit lens as well.I think I'm starting to understand things (ever so slowly) about DSLRs and lenses...can't wait 'till I actually get my hands on the camera next week!
