Hello
I just went form a broken d80 to a new d3200. I have dabbled in photography all my life.
I used to roll my own film and develop and print my own picks. In the olden days. LOL
I am a little confused with the newer technology.
I have a 18to55 and a 55 to 200 nikon lens.
Looking for a longer reach lens, but too many choices and confused about the AF and other issues with the lens communicating with the camera.
I honestly don't care if the bigger lens is AF. If I can save money and get a better lens that way. But if its not AF will it still communicate via aperture setting with the camera. I mean fully manual is fine, thats what i usually use, and always did when i was younger. I understand all those settings and terms.
Just confused with the new techno stuff.
Looking for a prime, or telephoto not set on one or the other. Just need more reach for wildlife stuff.
Or, would a 2x conveyer work on my 55 to 200 lens.
Thanks for any help
Mike
