[QUOTE="aroy, post: 309442, member: 16090"] 1. The primes have fixed focal length. 2. Manual Focus primes have to be focused manually. 3. AF primes have auto focus capability. Some have motor in the kense, so can AF with all DSLR. Some do not have motors in the lense, so have to use the motor in the body. The D3xxx and the D5xxx series of bodies do not have motor in their body. If you are on a budget, and will be shooting mostly static scenes, then the older manual focus AIS primes are ideal for you. Just read up on the net on these older lenses and select what suits you. My wish list for future acquisition consists of . 28mm F2.8 AIS . 50mm F1.2 AIS . 300mm & 400mm AIS [/QUOTE]
