[QUOTE="mashburn, post: 91394, member: 11752"] I purchased a D7000 with looking at reviews and talking to people on what I will be doing. well now I am lost on how to use it properly. I hate shooting in automatic. yet I do like the Auto Focus usually. I have a Nikkor lens AF 50MM 1:1.8 D - this is my favorite for doing self portraits. I also have a Nikkor AF 80-200MM 1:4.5-5.6 D - I use this in sports to get close up, but the quality is not a fan for me. I know that MM is what the zoom is. but when is the zoom too much and will get grainy? I know what !:1.8 is the F? correct? I know how to use this some but not correctly, just 'cause I do not know when I lower my F what should I change also? does the AF stand for auto focus? Does anyone know a good place or can explain to me on how and when to use F/Aperture/ISO? (ISO really loses me) I really want a good wide angle lens. I am thinking of a Tokina 11-16 Pro DX2. I am sure if that is a good one and what all it means. Also I am unsure if I would need to have a zoom, and think I would rather have a lowest MM as possible. I think 11-16 would be good for me. - but when I looked at DX, I think that is what I need for D7000. But I have seen FX. (what does FX and DX mean? does my camera have FX? I think it does not, and if it does not, then do I need to stay away from FX lenses?) I look forward to hearing from you all and also with sharing photos and you all critiquing my work and tell me what I should and should not do. - I have a great eye on what shot to get.....just I stink right now on the most important part of ISO/f/etc. LOL --- but this stuff can be learned. it is harder to teach someone what shot to go after. ok thanks, Jonathan Mashburn [/QUOTE]
