    One of the A-level/Uni folks

    Hi Ryan, I'm a fresh faced 19 year old so I thought I'd pitch in. :lol: If her college offer it, Photography is obviously a probably going to be top of the list.

    Nikon 55-200 VR on ebay - £115 ?!?!

    Good thought. I've been through more than 10 pages of feedback and only reached the 7th July. Seems the 'guy' is really shifting some gear. Says UK postage will take 2 days. Are ebay guys usually pretty trustoworthy on this? I need the lens by friday!

    Struggling with Digital - Washed out etccccc

    Help a Student Choose his next Lens! (Nikon)

    I've just decieded to upgrade my d3000 to a d80 to make use of AF lenses! However, I still am lacking a zoom lens. Does this open up any new options, or are the AF-S lenses significantly improved?

    Help a Student Choose his next Lens! (Nikon)

    2 votes for the 55-200 VR then. This is coincidentally is the plan for winter time :thumbs: (return of student loan payments) but i currently lack the funds :( I should probably add that my main use of the lens will be for street and travel photography. I would like at least 200mm of...
