Comparing bridge and 3 DSLR cameras?
I LOVE photography. I have an Olympus SP-610uz bridge camera right now. I found 3 DSLR cameras on craigslist all under $400. I was just wondering how they compare to my current camera.
Nikon D3000 w/ Nikkor 18-55mm lens - $325
NIKON D60 DSLR - $300
Nikon D40 DSLR with a 18-55mm VR lens - $250
And then my Olympus SP-610uz camera.
Which one has the best quality, and which is the best deal?
Added (1). Jim A, I wouldn't buy any equipment before getting the full information on it and checking it out. If it needs anything replaced, if something isn't working correctly, if it's dirty, or broken, that kind of thing. But thanks for the advice.

This weird guy approached us in the park?
He was overweight in a black wife beater and blue jean cut off shorts in sunglasses over regular glasses. He said he was an aspiring photographer and wanted to take pictures of my girlfriend while we were studying and her standing up and sitting on a bench, normal pictures from different distances and angles.My girlfriend looked at them and she said they looked decent. We are weirded out though. He was really shaky and lied to us. He said he was going to take more nature pictures in the park but he instead drove out of the park immediately afterwards. Also his camera was a small Nikon or something, not a legit photography camera. He was sketchy. We are in college btw, 18 and 19. What should I have done? We were both weirded out afterwards and told the university police and bought some mace for my girlfriend. We live together, so I would be here if he was a creep and followed her. What are some opinions on this? She was sort of uncomfortable because she was wearing shorts.

What Program can I use to take photos with my Nikon D3100 camera on the computer?
I'm working on some stop frame animation projects and I want to have a program or a way to take a photo from the computer without having to press the button on the camera and risk moving it even just a bit.
It would be nice if the photo transferred to the computer as well, but that isn't necessary.
I have a Nikon D3100 camera and Windows 7 on my laptop.
Any help would be awesome! Thank you
Added (1). I do have a USB cord connected from the camera to the computer and the computer recognizes it, and I access the Photos on the SD card in the camera, but I have no way of controlling the camera, or taking a picture from the computer itself.

Nikon: Shutter half-press vs AF-L/AE-L button?
Ok, I'm inside a cave and then I want to use the Spot Metering on my Nikon DSLR to make the entrance of the cave bright and the interior of the cave (where I am) dark. Then, after locking exposure to the cave entrance, I want to recompose and move the cave entrance to the side of the frame.
My question is that, does half-pressing the shutter locks exposure as well as focus just like what holding down the AF-L/AE-L button does?

How to Enable My Nikon D3100 to Work As a Webcam?
I know there are tutorials on youtube, such as this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=In9GSDLp5Aw
But how can I make my Nikon camera to be enabled as a webcam? The reason I want it to work as a webcam, is because I am using this to shoot Lego stop-motion and I am not sure how you can do this.Is there a way on how to do this?
Added (1). @ Jim A - I see reading is a hard subject. You do realize the link I put up shows you how to make a DSLR work as a webcam right? HERP DERP. I just can't find a way to configure it on the D3100, and that was my problem. You're really retarded. You should try working on listening skills, because quite frankly, you're a shitty epitome for old people.
@ Masticina Akicta - The reason I say this is because I use Helium Frog to capture my frames.It has onion skinning which shows if you moved the figure way too much, and it has a playback function. If I take pictures normally on my dslr, I can't playback at 15 fps or 24, and I cannot really tell if it looks smooth or choppy. I can play back the pictures, but not at the framerate I want it to be.As of right now, I think I'll just stick to my logitech webcam 9000.

Is it possible to shoot such image with a AF-S DX Micro NIKKOR 85mm f/3.5G ED VR?
Is it possible to shoot a image like (http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=427278513985747&set=a.340971509283115.78878.203375569709377&type=3&theater0 ) with a true 1:1 macro lens. If not then what kind of lens is required to shoot like it… consider other factors like ring flash… , tripod… , background… etc.are perfect.
Another question is is it a normal size image or enlarged? Is it possible to enlarge a normal photo (from a 16 mega pixel SLR) with such details?

Will Nikon ever make an AF-S version of the 50mm f1.2?
As you may know if you are familiar with the Nikon product line, Nikon has a 50mm f1.2 but it's an old, manual focus only lens, and it sells for about $725.
Nikon has already modernized its other 50mm lenses, with the f1.4G and f1.8G, and i think it's time the 50mm f1.2 makes a modern serious comeback.
What do you guys think?

Beach setting for Nikon D60?
Please help!
I am shooting with a Nikon D60. Right now, I don't have a reflector or external flash. I am solely using the camera. What settings should I use to get great beach photos? Also, should I use my 18-55 or 55-200? I have shot beach photos before, and they look good… but they are just missing that something special.It is usually because of the lighting. Lighting is my biggest problems. Please help with setting suggestions! thank you :)

Nikon D600 Pros and Cons?
I am thinking about getting a new camera. I know I am going to get one, I just don't know which one I should get. I am leaning towards the nikon d600 and I have weighed out some pros and cons
Pros
Least expensive out of all of the cameras
High ISO looks better than the D700 to me
The resolution seems just right 24 megapixels
The photos out of this camera look awesome!
2 SD card slots
Cons
It doesn't feel as nice as the D700 in my hands
That damn AF Mode button is in the weirdest place, I hate it. I wish they kept it where it was on the D700. I use this button constantly
No CF card slot
Where is the best place to get the cheapest nikon d600 price? Thank you! Also, if you have any other comments about the nikon 600 plz let me know

Best way to switch over to Canon from Nikon?
I'm not 100% sure on switching to Canon… this is a very long term thing. I have no reason to switch immediately.
My original plan was to start buying Canon lenses, and buy a mount adapter so I can use it with my Nikon D5000 until I buy a Canon body (if that happens).
And now I'm realizing that Canon lenses are more expensive? (At least from looking for a 35mm f/1.8 or faster) So I'm thinking of buying a Nikon lens and buy an adapter in the future for my possible Canon camera.
Any advice? Are adapters worth the trouble? Do the Nikon lenses, not adapter, depend on which type of Canon body I'm planning to get? Thanks in advance!
Added (1). I'm in the film industry and Canon 5Ds are the standard HDSLR for small shoots. I want to get accustomed to their interface even though I love Nikon. I have no intention to get rid of my current camera either. Would you be able to answer any of my questions?
