    Adobe Camera Raw question

    Hey guys. Right now I'm using Photoshop Elements for cataloging and editing my raw photos. The organizer part works fine, other then sometimes it can take 30-45 seconds to unblur or load the photo. However my main problem comes from the editor side. When I go to open a raw file, it takes a...

    35mm 1.8G or 50mm 1.8G?

    My birthday is coming up next week and wife had told me to pick out a lens I want. I currently have a 50MM Af lens that won't Autofocus on my D3200. I love the lens when I have time to focus. My question is would I be off better replacing the 50MM Af lens with a 50MM AF-S or adding the 35mm...

    Which lens would you recommend?

    Figured I'd update you guys. Graduation was this past Saturday. I bought a 55-200 to try and figured it'd be nice to have anyway. It was a home school graduation, so it wasn't as packed as I figured. However I still went up to the balcony and shot up there using the 55-200. It had pretty decent...

    50MM 1.8D vs 50MM 1.8G

    Hey guys. I have a 50mm 1.8D that I got from a friend for pretty cheap. It's a great lens and takes great photos. Only problem is I have a D3200 so the 1.8D doesn't auto focus. I'm thinking of swapping it out for the AF-S 50MM 1.8G so that it'll auto focus. My question is, are both lenses...

    Which lens would you recommend?

    I'm pretty new to photography got my 3200 about 2 months ago. So far love it. The 2 lenses I currently have are the kit 18-55 and a 50MM prime that a friend sold me for cheap.

    Good lens options for D3200.

    Hey guys, newb here.I just recently bought a D3200 kit with the 18-55 lens. I read a review before purchasing that the lens that come with the 3200 doesn't take full advantage of what the camera can do, which is main reason I decided to go with one lens kit. I would like to get a 55-200 or...

    First shots with D3200

    Figured I'd post my first shots form the 3200 to see what your thoughts are. My first DSLR and new to photography, so any tips highly welcomed. Been reading tons on book and magazines on the subject, so wonder if any of it's actually sunk into my brain. LOL Can't seem to link from Flickr, so...

    Post your latest purchases.

    I am now a proud owner of a D3200. Best Buy had it on sale for $499 and I had about $200 worth gift cards, so I figured why not. This is my first DSLR. After just messing around with it, I've decided I probably should have gotten the 2 lens version, as I'm gonna need more zoom then the 18-55...

    Image settings question L820

    I swear I've looked all over the reference manual for a answer to this but can't seem to find it. It's two highest settings are 16M (4608x3456), however one of those has a star next to it. The only difference I seem to be able to find in the reference manual is that the one with the star next to...
