Emc2:35mm 1.8 fixed lens ela untadi,
you must already have a zoom lens that cover 35mm focal length. The 35mm prime lens at f/1.8, even better f/1.4 is much more powerful. It is focuses faster and performs better, even in low light. I vote for fixed 35mm over zoom. |

>>>35mm 1.8 fixed lens ela untadi,should i go for zoom or fixed.. Depends on your need, bro. Also, you won't get a f-stop of 1.8 in zoom lens, you probably get more like 3.5, which is not at all comparable to prime lens with a f-stop of 1.8. |

Go for zoom. Fixed unte you need to measure light, distance from camera etc. Typical desi settings lo ivanni possible kadu. |

>>>miru cheppedi totally professional photography.. anthe kani DSLR professionals ke ani kadu ga.. What is professional vs non-professional business? DSLR professionals ki ani evvaru cheppaaaru? You have an instrument, use it to its potential. If someone wants to learn to do that, what is wrong in it. May be you are happy with what you are getting in auto mode, that does not mean the same to everyone as well, right? |

Papayya, What you said is correct, that does not mean manual mode shooting for majority of the situations is useless. I shoot only manual mode no matter what the lighting level is. Manual mode gives me total control on my camera, means I am the one in control and creating the image, it is my art. Hope you got the point. |

Dreamcatcher:
Thammullu.. nenu DSLR lo basic advantage low light lo chushanu.. migithadi nannu voggeyyandi.. Ultimately as you get more advanced, you’ll need to experiment with manual mode under difficult lighting situations. Manual mode is required when the lighting changes abruptly where you are trying to shoot. Usually when you are using a flash unit for indoor photography, shooting moving objects in low light when you want a preset shutter speed to freeze time (indoor stadiums during a performance or sports) & at rock concerts or outdoor performances with strobes & lighting all over the place. There are some other examples when manual mode is required, simply also because the camera will get fooled if you try & use auto mode in these situations.

Uppu:18-55 MM, 24MM kante wide kada
Yes but does not perform well. Look at the aperture size: 18-55mm is f/3.5 where as 14-24mm is f/2.8. Also, narrower the focal range, better the performance. That's why 18-55mm goes for $200 where as 14-24mm costs $2000 (MSRP). |

Pointblank:how about wide angle lens... did you guys find it like useful?...
I have 14-24mm f/2.8. Wide angle lens is for limited use only, especially for landscapes. Usually they are bulky/heavy, not suitable for everyday usage. These days normal zoom lenses are going down to 24mm, so you can skip a dedicated wide angle lens. |

Emc2:50mm lo DX format levu,only FX format, so 50mm lens most likely d5000 ki pani chesthundi,i have seen situation where it wont work on DX cameras.. instead go for 35mm, nenu kuda ippudu baaga research chesthunna potrait lens vs zoom lens edi best ani..
Usually FX and DX cameras can work with FX/DX lenses. The output will be different depending on the crop factor. D5000 is a DX camera. The 50mm FX prime lens is equivalent to 75mm on D5000 which is still great for portraits. I have this lens and takes nice pictures in low light. Make sure you get wider aperture f/1.4 for better low-light performance. |

photography triangle: aperture, shutter speed, ISO. any camera, ivi basic thelisi undali. aperture setting: you chose aperture, camera will select shutter spped. this is used to blur the background. shutter: you chose shutter speed, camera will select aperture. this is to capture movement in the pic. first start with aperture settings. learn how pic will get the blurred b/g based on settings. then go to shutter speed and experiment at different speeds. slow speed lo caputre some water falls and you will be amazed with result. (ekkuva sunlight unte, it will be overexposed, pic will be all white). next step: go to manual mode and you control both aperture and SS. if you got the result what you need in manual, then you are the master anthey..kummeseyyi.. its all digital, so take as many as possible...no wastage unlike in paper photography. buy a good tripod, don't go with cheap if you are serious. you must need tripod for slow shutter speeds. buy a good carry bag, lens covering caps, small dusters, remote trigger (very cheap $5) etc.. next based on your budget and interest..go for macro lenses and fish-eye lenses. I used to have Nikon D60 before, but now owning a canon t3i. i love canon. canon v/s nikon is another big debate...but it shouldn't matter. if possible, 'Understanding exposure' book koneseyyi..around $15 by author Bryan Peterson. its highly recommended by pros. next go to digital photography school forums...its very popular. hope this helps. |
