The seller didn't have a lens for it, so he said. So I have to find a 1.8 AI-S lens, preferably a 50mm.

I've been reading a few threads on this forum, and also looking through the catalog of Nikkor lenses, and I've noticed that the pro lenses are not what you would want for travelling, or the kind of versatility you would want as a tourist. I'm guessing that those of you who have enjoyed a Nikon...

Are we allowed to include a personal blog in our profile? I have a WordPress blog for photography, and I wanted to include it. If we're not, it's okay with me.

I've just ordered two used photography books from Amazon: Using Your Camera: A Basic Guide to 35mm Photography, by George Schaub, and Basic 35mm Photo Guide, by Craig Alesse. I might be ahead of Alesse's book, since I do have experience with an SLR, but I might get something out of it. I think...

I went to Photo Outfitters (a used camera store and Nikon dealer) today to see about an FM2. They didn't have one, but they did have an FE2. I talked to the guy for an hour or more about these cameras and all the differences, and I decided to buy the FE2. It's near mint, and the owner is going...

Apparently this site keeps logging me out while I'm typing a post, and I currently have to posts pending, which couldn't be posted because I was logged out when I finished. I've looked all over this site, and I can't find them to post them before they expire. Can you help?

Hello Photobugs! My dad had an Olympus OM-10 for most of my growing up years, and he took a lot of great photos with it. In this way, he was a major influence on me having an interest in photography. When I was about 20 he bought a new OM model, and sold me the OM-10, with a Vivitar zoom lens...
