I have just upgraded from a D5000 to a D5100, sold the 5000 with original kit lens and a tamron 70-300mm lens then bought the 5100 ith a kit lens but also just bought a tamron 18-270mm lens from Jessops for £400 and i love it, its so much better than hot swapping all the time which has had a...

Did anyone take notice of the branding at the start of the video ? Creative Reliable Appropriate Priceless :lol:

I much prefer the second shot (the original), its stunning mate and so is the car :thumbs:

Thank you, I take your point in regards to the final choice but obviously just looking for other people's perspectives too as I find that contrasting feedback is invaluable when weighing up the pro's and cons :)

Many thanks for the info :thumbs:

I love this, it really made me smile, I'd happily blow this up to large scale and hang it on my lounge wall :thumbs:

Thank you very much for this guys, I'm not familiar with the Sigma stuff as I said but feedback always helps and Tim, I don't think I'd buy one without as I've noticed quite a difference with the VR switched off :)

Thanks for the pics Pete but i still can't follow that link as I dont have sufficient access yet :(

Wide angle lens would work well to get a decent view of the sky from a tripod and round about ISO100 in manual mode with an aperture of F16. Shutter speed of approx 2-3 sesonds but you could extend up to about 6-7 seconds and use a remote to fire the shutter and eliminate camera shake :thumbs:

Thanks for that buddy, Unfortunately I can't access the classifieds as yet (I'm too new :lol:) so could you email or PM me the details and any pics on the ad please ?

What a stunning picture, I do so love B&W photography !

As per title really, I'm looking for a lens to fit a Nikon D5000 to replace my kit lens and my Tamron 70-300 lens so ideally looking at an 18-200 or somewhere in that range, preferably with VR or equivalent. Budget I'm unsure of at the moment so I need to weigh up the pro's and con's of whatever...

That Sigma 50mm looks ok too, just got back from holiday in Mallorca so thanks for the replies, I'm just catching up a bit now :lol:

Ooh I didn't know I could reverse the lens, thanks for that, I might give that a try :thumbs: Where's best to look for the Tamron 90mm ?

Lovely shot of your cat :thumbs:
