Using different brand lens for different brand camera?

I'm thinking about purchasing a Pentax ZX-L camera.

It's coming with a camera case, 75-300mm zoom lens, 58mm Skylight 1-A filter, and cable switch for extended exposure shots.
Does anyone know if the 75-300mm zoom lens a good lens?

Can I use other brand lenses? (Like Nikon, or Ricoh).

If so, what other brands can I use?

Please help! I'm new to this and would really appreciate the knowledge.

Sony handycam for youtube?

Hi! I'm just starting a beauty channel on youtube, and I'm looking into getting one of the handycams for filming my videos. I have a few questions:

-How good are these at shooting videos for youtube? I want my vids to look professional and polished, with good sound. The way typical beauty videos by famous bloggers like essiebutton and whatihearttoday look.not incredibly pro a la missglamorazzi, but good enough for people to want to watch.
-What do i do about audio? right now i'm recording with a nikon d5000, and the video quality and sound SUCK. I hate hate hate bad audio, and I really want it to be crisp and clean.would this camcorder do the work for me, or do i need a separate mic?

-does it autofocus during video? I need to be able to hold up swatches, etc and for it to focus without me having to do it manually.

any help would be amazing. THANKS!

Canon 5d mark 3 issue?

Hi everyone. I have nikon d800 and 5d mark 3. I like the way the 5d mark 3 feels in the hand wayyyy better than d800. Now the only reason I don't like it.Is every time I try to pull the shadows is see vertical colors a noisy one like a spider net. Did that happened to anyone. Or it's just me. Or it's just a canon thing. Bending and stuff. On the other hand. The d800 does not have this issue.It's just it not good in the hand. And I have big hands.. And I like the canon screen and how accurate is the wb. I wanna decide. Which one to keep. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Issues with camera shake using dslr?

I'm using a Nikon D3200 with the kit lens 18-55mm currently, and have VR turned on.
Yesterday I went for a shoot at a local nature reserve, and found that when returning home many of the images had some camera shake in, which made many of the photos useless when zoomed in or cropped.
I was using an ISO of 400, generally keeping the aperture at f9-11 and the shutter speed then adjusts accordingly, it was usually between 40 and 100.
I was wondering what I can do to reduce camera shake, as I understand reducing the aperture can reduce sharpness and increasing the ISO can increase noise, and of course carrying a tripod is not always convenient.
Any help is appreciated, and many thanks in advance!
