[QUOTE="Mattys_Mommy, post: 265895, member: 21304"] I do not know where to post this but I have a question. I am new to this, I took one photography class and it was with film so I am completely new to digital. I just got the Nikon D3100. It comes with the 18-55mm lens which I've read isn't excellent but at the moment I do not have the funds for a new lens. So I have two questions one when I do have the funds which lens should I plan to get. I would like a multipurpose lens and my main focus will probably be photos of my son & pets and such. My second question is I have a Tamron 28-300mm lens on my old film Nikon N60, is that compatible with my D3100? Also would it be beneficial to use or better then the lens that came with it? I still do not even understand the different lens and what they do so I have a lot to learn! Also do I need to purchase an external flash? Any extra tips on how to get the most out of my camera would be greatly appreciated too. Thanks :) [/QUOTE]
