QUOTE(ikki9394 @ Aug 19 2011, 09:27 PM) Hi every1! just a quick question here. Im planning to get a D7000 soon as a new entry. Should I start off with 50mm 1.8G or 18-105mm VR or 18-200 VRII? Im interested in shooting on streets, faces, portrait and bokeh shots. I've read from a website saying as a starter should get a prime lens to learn. Then sooner find out what kinda lens i will need. Is that true? not true the truth is, use what ever in ur hands first.. fully utilize it first |

Is that true? use kit lens first, find the range what you wan to get then baru get other lens...last time they recommended 50mm f/1.8D (not G) because that is cheapest prime lens, rm 3xx only...that's why recommended for newbies if they wan a prime lens to play play. |

Icic... I was thinking of getting 50mm 1.8G because ppl in Flickr discussion recommended it as it suit my main requirement(streets and faces mainly). Plus it is 1 of the bestest budget prime lens as it is on the par with the 50mm 1.4G eventhought the price is twice less expensive. |

Might as well you cut out your subject and paste THAT in a solid black background instead? Easier than if you wan slowly paint all the nooks and crannies. And yeah, that would be super impose. Super imposing the subject onto the black b/g |

Is that true? If you like bokeh, you need to get a fast lens. For example, the 50mm f1.8. It is the cheapest AF prime lens and a must have for all photographer. If you want more out from the 50mm lens, invest on the f1.4 version, you will never regret  |

Darkripper: cokin holder is rotatable. so u can just focus, then rotate the holder. or hold the holder when focusing. |
