Living in the North of Scotland, I am not close to any place where I can walk in and try. But I do know of a small shop in Harrogate, so I am considering a trip to there at...

    It is no longer there now. Yes I want a wider angle lens that will work with a D3100 and or a D70s The D3100 I like, the D70s I like more, I have far better results with it. An idea I have is to go into town and photograph some of the older parts of the city, lots of churches and ornate...
