I've read that it is a good idea to protect your lens glass with a filter. Replacing a filter is certainly less expensive than having to replace a lens because of a scratched lens glass. Since a D5100 does not need a UV filter in all cases, do most of you use a clear filter for protecting your...

It would have to be one of my least favorite subjects and otherwise I wouldn’t have brought it up, but everywhere I go it seems as though someone is always talking about Kim Kardashian. I’m sure she won't losing any sleep over it but would someone recommend her for the next NASA trip to Mars?

I like using Google Earth and find it fascinating every time I use it. What I've always wondered is, how do they take the street level pictures? Those can't possibly be from the satellite view and I know there are not thousands of photographers running around taking pictures on every street in...

Do you think you could notice the difference between pictures taken with a Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G and a Nikon AF-S Nikkor 50mm f/1.8G lens? This question probably can only be answer by someone that has used both. I trying to decide which one I want. biggest difference is price.

I've had my D5100 for about a month. There are so many lens choices and I am confused most of the time which 300mm telephoto lens will autofocus on my D5100. I'm not familiar with all of the AF verses AF-S differences. Any advice will be appreciated.

So far I just have a pretty basic camera bag. I was wondering what all of you are carrying your D5100 and equipment with.
