[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 271057, member: 6277"] A prime lens is not a zoom. It is a fixed focal length. How big are your "[COLOR=#333333]gadgets" that you want to video? If small you may need to get a macro lens to shoot those. I have a D5100 and love it. For what you are doing that camera will do a great job for you. I still say the 18-105 would be better for you than the 55-200. The problem with that lens when you are out doors shooting is that you can not shoot anything wide with it. Sometimes you just can't back up enough to get the shot you want. Buy the D5100 with the 18-105 and a 40MM Macro for your videos buy refurbished and save yourself some money [/COLOR][URL]http://www.cameta.com/Nikon-D5100-Digital-SLR-Camera-Body-Factory-Refurbished-62313.cfm[/URL] [URL="http://www.cameta.com/Nikon-18-105mm-f-3-5-5-6-G-VR-ED-AF-S-DX-Zoom-Nikkor-Lens-Factory-Refurbished-40355.cfm"]Nikon 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6 G VR ED AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor Lens - Factory Refurbished includes Full 1 Year Warranty[/URL] [URL="http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/810414-USA/Nikon_2200_40_mm_f_2_8G_AF_S.html"]Nikon 40mm f/2.8G AF-S DX Micro-Nikkor Lens 2200 B&H Photo Video[/URL] [/QUOTE]
