Sunrise and sunset should have no problem at all.

LOL

u answer like this la... the vitamin D from the sun keep the sensor healthy

It depends on the owner and what type of picture I expect to get when I go out shooting.
I have fast lenses (24-70,70-200) but I still use 18-105 on daytime as its light and flexible.
Means I always have to squat in front of my drybox to think what lens to take every time I go out.

Lawl, a bio student will kill you.

Sunrise/sunset the sun not so strong, it's ok. Afternoon sun better don't.
If you really want shoot afternoon sun, use film slr camera

pop up flash used .
iso 800

CnC

18-105 still advantage which is flexible mah
but if got 17-50/17-55 f/2.8 n 18-55, sure take the f/2.8 mah, so the 18-55 kinda useless, no?

wat aperture used? left side kinda blurred out
n compo not straight

Nicely done

if i not mistaken, i think the manual there got state dont directly shoot the afternoon sun...other than that..if ur camera not pointing to sun,shud be ok i think..

yeah the compo not straight , since they want fast .haizzz

1/13sec

f/4

not bad actually considering was using built-in flash
jz for group shots shud have used higher f number
but under the dark conditions i doubt u can use higher f number n use handheld

higher F . means lower aperture . more sharp ?

More DoF.

yupe, smaller aperture
allow the whole group to be in focus with better depth of field

Use Picasa, edit to straighten it, that should do the trick

Kill the sensor, try this. Shoot at the sun, and then do a dead pixel check. More dead pixels would pop up after your shot at the harsh sun >.<

Ahh if I were you, its definitely the 24-70 most of the time, or 70-200 when need tele. I doubt I would consider the 18-105 at all.

but he said cant join the model photography coz shooting the morning sun kills the cam... if itz the case, means we cant use our cam whenever there is sun??

Bro would like enquire?...
what types of lenses that compatible with nikon D3000, coz i heard this type of camera is quiet hard to get lenses...

Why not check the manual?

why not help him or advice him more other than check manual?

you should follow lyn style and say.. go google

anyway, googling before hand will lead to this

don't click

it's not that it's hard to get lens. u can use all nikon lens on d3000. question is, are there any motor in the lens that allows u to AF
