[QUOTE="Blueandgreenmakecyan Tass, post: 416535, member: 37466"] Thanks so much everyone. I filled in the rest of my profile Fotojack, thanks for that. Although it doesn't recognise our pentarex or any of our zeisss lenses, they're pretty old. I got to see and hold the camera and the lenses in a shop for a bit. Thank you for the suggestion about the Kit lens Aroy. We will buy it with kit lens then, since you all seem to really like it, thank you for that. Adityasoman and Horoscope, you both seem to be suggesting the better 70-300 over the 55-300 in the replies. I looked online, I noticed some people not 100% happy with the 55-300 focusing speed. I was looking at the Tamron 70-300 VC too online. I think I might not be completely happy with the 55-300 either, will look at the other 2. They didn't have those zooms in the shop, but I did get to see the 35mm 1.8, it looked nice. They showed me the 85 prime 1.8G, I really really like that lens for some reason. It looks very similar to our 135mm on our pentarex film camera and it seemed familiar. Guessing because of the crop factor on the Nikon. It's still affordable and I really love it's compact size and magnification. Does anyone happen to know if it has any issues with the D3300, will autofocus work properly? (I read something about autofocusing not working with the D3100). I held the 3300 for a bit, it was extremely light and nice to hold. Thanks so much for all those replies, wish I could quote everyone but that would be a long reply. [/QUOTE]
