Which camera lens should I bring on a trip to New York?

I will be going on a school choir touring trip to New York City and would like to bring a Nikon D7000. Out of the three lenses I have (Nikon 135mm f/2 DC, Nikon 50mm f/1.4 G, Nikon 10-24mm f/3.5-4.5G ED), I would like to only have to bring one. Which one should I bring?

I want the one that will allow me to take pictures of both the city buildings/sights, people, but also fun miscellaneous things like my food.

Thank you in advance!

Need advice on a new camera?

I have had my Nikon D3200 for more than a year now, and I've definitely grown out of it already. Since I already have 50mm 1.8G and a 55-300mm Nikkor lenses, I'm getting a Nikon. Right now i'm trying to choose between the D7100 and the D300s. I know for a fact the d7100 is great in low light and is the best APS camera (not full frame), but the D300s seems a lot more professional and better since it is a full frame camera. Both of them have pretty good FPS, and I shoot sports every now and then but its not too much of a big deal. Please give me your opinions on which one I should get.

Macro lens vs Macro filter?

It's obvious which is less expensive, but which is a better choice? I'm not sure that I'll use a macro lens on my Nikon D60 enough to justify it's purchase… Would filters be suitable or only worth the little money I might pay for them?

What lens would you suggest getting next?

I have a DX frame Nikon and currently I have the 18-55 kit lens and 50mm 1.8G. I like portraiture both indoor and out, as well as landscape. I never photograph anything super speedy, or wildlife - the fastest things I photograph are pets and rarely. I'm not too fussed about running back and forward and I actually prefer my prime to the zoom… I would really quite like a super wide angle. I'm throwing in things here, there and everywhere actually sorry ha.
Anything you can suggest from the ramblings I've given, any brand!
Thanks so much!

Good all around nikon lens?

looking for a good all around nikon lens. Needs all the features. Needs be be a good wide angle and zoom lens for snowboarding or skateboarding. Auto focus is a must cuz ill be using this for video too. So far my favorite lens is the 18-55mm 1:3.5-5.6G kit lens that came with my d3200. It does this the best but i know theres better quality lenses out there im just new to photography cams.

current useless lenses i have:
-kit lens
-AF micro nikkor 60mm 1:2.8D
-AF nikkor 50mm 1:1.8D
-AF nikkor 28-80mm 1:3.3-5.6 G
Added (1). i mainly need the auto focus for video cuz i cant focus quick or good enough while on a skateboard, snowboard, or while moving. Need something that can do everything so i dont have to carry tons of lenses around me up the mountain. So a wide angle plus a good zoom lens would be nice
Added (2). thanks guys. Probably gonna look at a 18-200mm. Still learning bout lenses. This shits confusing as ****. Btw, my 18-55 kit lens does have VR. And i didnt buy all those lenses haha. The macro and 28-80mm i "borrowed" from my dads camera that he doent use and i stupidly bought the 50mm prime lens thinking it was something else
Added (3). yes i agree. I still like and use the 18-55 kit lens the most. Its the most useable for every day situations. Ive yet to see how a prime lens could be your "go-to" lens being that it doesnt zoom…haha…you might miss out on quite a few shots there.

Will nikon ever make a video camera?

will nikon ever make a dedicated video camera? Seems like they should enter this market being they already make the best DSLR cam out there. They have all the necessary experience so i dont see why they have started this yet
Added (1). what do you mean why bother? If youre saying that then theres no reason for sony or canon to make video cameras either cuz they both have a huge line of DSLR's that can shoot HD vid.

Photography lighting and backdrop?

I am setting up a photoshoot to do with dancers. I have a studio space with great natural lighting, but I wanted a white backdrop and very strong lighting to get sharp contrasts and shadows. I don't have a lot of money to buy any expensive equipment, but I do have really bright painter's lights that I think could work really well. I just don't know what to use for a backdrop. Any tips (on the backdrop, lighting, shooting tips)?

P.s. I have a Nikon D3200

Thank you!

Found a great deal on amazon, is it a scam?

From what I know, amazon seems pretty safe, I buy almost all my things from amazon. Is it possible to be scammed on amazon? There is a camera lens that I want to buy.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00009MDBQ/sr=8-4/qid=1393290912/ref=olp_product_details?ie=UTF8&me=&qid=1393290912&seller=&sr=8-4

This usually goes for about 900 dollars used with the lens having a 6/10 shape, or missing parts
For a very good used lens, it usually goes for about 1100-1400
This guy is selling the lens Brand New with everything for 900 dollars to me. I have been waiting on a deal like this for over a year. Do you think I should?

Here is the listing. It says that it is being sold for 760 dollars, but when I contacted him, he said that it was a promotion, and the actual price he is selling is for 1200 dollars. He said that he will sell it to me for 900 since I told him that I was a student.

Added (1). He does offer a 29 day return policy, a full refund. I am not sure if that will mean anything.

Can I use the SB800 flash without batteries inside, if I'm using an external battery pack?

I have the Nikon SB800 flash, and the Quantum Turbo SC external battery, (which I use with my Nikon D90.) My flash was overheating with the batteries inside, and one of them actually popped inside the flash, which had to be cleaned for spills. After that incident the flash works, but it's faulty, the flash releases randomly with new batteries inside. So my hope is that I could override the necessity of batteries inside, since the external battery would provide plenty of power to operate the flash by itself. With that in mind, when I try to turn on the flash without the batteries inside, only the external one nothing happens, whomp! Any similar experiences or solutions would greatly help, Thanks!

Video editing, After effect, Movies?

Hi, me and my friends are shooting a short film. When we edit the 2 minutes video in after effects it changes size from 150 MB to 2 GB. I don't know what is the problem, we only use color correction. I know some converters which make 2 GB to 25 MB, but after the quality of the video is very bad.

I don't understand. In Hollywood they use RED cameras and the size of the movie (1080p, bluray) is 25 GB. Any advice?

Why is my Nikon D3200 Taking grainy pictures?

I recently purchased a Nikon D3200. I am shooting a short film and so far this has been the best camera I've used for film making (A major step up from a camcorder.) At first my D3200 kept taking great pictures, but slowly it started getting worst. On the second day my ISO setting didn't allow me to put it on auto ISO, and now about 1 day ago it started taking grainy pictures. What's going on? I checked the setting and even reset them. As for picture I took for my actors durring my short film, they we're grainy especially when it was really sunny and not one bit sunny outside. I need it to shoot some good pictures in broad daylight. What's going on?

(My ISO was at 100 when I shot pictures.)

Made a mistake buying Nikon D5200?

So I'm doing a school project and required a very good DSLR.

I rushed and bought a Nikon D5200 with the 18-55mm kit lens.

I did research after a couple days of owning it and found out that the Pentax K-30 takes much sharper images and has a much faster shutter speed.

Everything I heard that the K-30 beats the D5200 in every way.

Kinda wished I did the research and bought the Pentax K-30 instead of a D5200. $750 down the drain it seems.

Should I return it and get a K-30 or just keep it and accept the loss?
Added (1). Pentax K-30 has much less shutter lag I meant. My bad.

Why my Nikon SB800 speed light explodes during photo shoot?

I had a 3-day photo shoot, about 6 hours and 400 photos each day. I used 5 Duracell Ultra Advanced and an rechargeable external battery, everything was fine until the end of the third day, I switched to Duracell Quantum, after 10 shots I heard a "pop" and I saw the plastic melted a bit. I was able to turn the speed light on and off and see all the functions but the light is gone.

I'm not sure what happened. Was it battery issue or my speed light is over used? Also my speed light is about 10 years.

And can I have it repaired?

Your professional advice is deeply appreciated.

Best,

Dslr Tamron lens selection?

I have a very little confusion regarding dslr lens. Im not too noob nor a professional. I hv nikon D5100 with kit lens 18-55mm. I want to upgrade my lens. The thing making me confuse is that f-stop means aperture or focal length, the more smaller F number, the more bokeh(blurred background) effect u get. But i have seen lenses with F-stop like 4-5.6 and their sample images hv very smooth creamy bokeh effects that look near to f1.8 or siniliar results. How it is possible? I mean f2.8 or less than this seems to be doing the job but how they does it with f5.6 lens?
I already know the technique of distance between subject and background. More difference means more blurness.
I want a tamron lens for every day to day photography like event or wedding stills etc.
The lens i hv found based on my knowledge and experience is Tamron A17 Af 70-300mm F/4-5.6 Di LD MACRO. Is this the right choice?
u can suggest me other lenses as well, coz i dnt want to regret later:D

Nikon Tamrom 28-75mm 2.8 Lens Help?

Hi Everyone!

I'm looking for a zoom lens for a very small wedding. I have a Nikon D7100 with the kits lens 18-105mm. I also have two prime lenses 35mm 1.8 and the 50mm 1.8. I was looking at the Tamrom 28-75mm 2.8 but the reviews are with all scattered opinions…

Has anyone really tried it out? Is it very noisy? Slow to focus? Good in low light? Sharp images?

I previously had a nikon d5200 with kit lens and a 35mm 1.8 prime. Sold that set to try something new with canon and upgrade to a a more pro consumer camera the 70D.

I liked the 35mm since it was sharp, nice bokeh and acted as a nifty 50 on a crop sensor.

thinking of going all out for canon 35mm L 1.4 lens.

Is it a good prime lens to invenst it? Or put it towards like a 24-70mm 2.8 L?

Upgrading lenses…which to get?

I'm a natural light photographer who specializes in children, senior, engagement, and family photography. I'm planning on using my tax return money to upgrade my camera to a full frame sensor and upgrade my lenses. I currently own a 50mm 1.8 and an 85mm 1.8 (all nikon products).

I can only choose one or the other…which would you suggest?

Is it better to go for an External Mic or Sound recorder device?(HDSLR)?

Hi

I can't actually decide here.
in my case the two that i chose are Rode on-camera Vid mic VS Zoom H1
Both are the same price available for me and i'm stuck here.
The pick-up pattern of the rode is very good and useful
but more control on the voice from the Zoom like level meters or the size of it.
the reason that i don't think that buying the rode mic is that much useful is because
i'm using Nikon D5100 which doesn't have Audio metering bars or Level control
so a Dual system recording for more control is useful here.

Excellent ISO ( 100-2600 for example )
EFV ( i travel a lot and like to get close to the subject thru the visor…)
Flip screen ( typical on Canon and Nikon camaras
Not too heavy in weight as I travel for work and pleasure
Between 12 & 20 mega pixels should be enough
My preferred brands ( i currently own a canon Powershot 1 I S which has given me 8 years of excellent pics but uses AAA batteries & has only 6 mpx! )
Canon, Nikon or Lumix with a Leica lens.
I did take a serious look at the powershot g series but the lenses however bright are only X5 in distance, way too short nowadays.
A tall order perhaps?
Many thanks for any answers, greatly appreciated and will be studied.
Oh, price? 500€ / 600$ / £500

What should i ask my aunt for?

hi! My aunt (whom i consider is very economically stable ) always asks me if i want anything and i always tell her not to worry that im fine. My 16th birthday is coming up and i really want a nikon d3200 or a canon rebel t3i which are in some ways similar cameras and they are relatively similar as well in the price range. Id say max. 500$ or 600$
she has two sons and one is a college grad and he is working and the other one graduates highschool next year like i do. And she always tells me im like the daughter she never had because she likes to buy me things since she has always bought things for boys.
the thing is i'm really shy when it comes to this like i dont know if i should ask her for this, is it too much to ask for? Should i just ask for something else then. I dont want to bother. Its like i do want the camera but i just am a bit afraid of asking

Custom White Balance?

Hi Everyone,

I am wondering for a few days and searching for an answer. I am using Nikon D5200 and wanted to PRE AWB (Custom White Balance)

Now my question is - What setting do I use to take the white/18% gray picture?

I mean by "settings" is what distance from the white object, what initial AWB the dial should be set to? Also what Aperture and Shutter Speed should be set to? Should the flash fire?

Hope I described my question clearly.

Thanks.

I am wondering what kind of camera I could get a decent price?

My brother has a Nikon D5100. I am moving to Oklahoma later this year and I would like to get a nice camera that can take pictures of lightning and among other things. I see D3100, D3200, D5200. I don't really get the differences. All I see is how much they all cost. Since I also don't know much about cameras I would like one that wouldn't be too complicated. I can follow instructions fine and I could probably figure it out, but I don't need one that can do all kinds of things when I just want something that can take nice, decent pictures without spending a **** ton of money. Thanks.

I can't use the Auto-focus mode in my Nikon d3200?

It all started when I had an out-of-town trip with friends when I tried to take a photo of the falls and beaches and trees with the sun flares. I thought it either got too much sun exposure or or something is broken inside or my camera really needs cleaning, which i don't know how and i cant find anyone who knows how. Also, I can't set up the White balance, ISO, AF-area mode, etc in the Shooting Menu. I tried resetting all but, still, nothing. I also can't bring it to the city to get cleaned(im in a town--fare is so much for me), i can't afford it. So right now, I only use the manual focusing, which gives me blur captures(not good in taking pictures esp in action) and my photo quality changed. I love taking pictures of every moment that happened and having nice landscape pictures satisfy me and I know i am very careless in taking care of the camera. I need help. Thank you!

How to change the aperture on my Nikon D40?

i set my camera to the A setting, and I was using the command wheel (the one on the back, not the top) to change the numbers when i looked through my viewfinder. The numbers are changing, but I don't see any change in the depth of field. I put my hand in front of the lens, but far enough for it to focus, and my hand and the background were both equally as focused. What am I doing wrong?

Oh, one more thing: how do aperture, shutter speed, and iso play into each other? How should I adjust them to compliment each other?

Thanks in advance!

How to power a Nikon D5200 through an external power cord, rather than batteries?

Hi!

I do long term, event shooting on my camera crane, problem is I always find my Nikon dying. I've tried battery grips, but yet I still find my Nikon to die on me. Is there some kind of converter, or hardware I can buy to power the camera through an external cord? I was thinking perhaps there is like a battery grip with a power connector, or something of that nature, yet I have still not found one.

Your thoughts?

Is the nikon d5300 the best multipurpose camera for filming and photography?

I am a student and my budget is around £500. I was going to buy the nikon d5300, but I don't know how practical it will be for filming (my current projects are to film a music video and a short film)
If you own this camera, or it's predecessor, could you tell me:
Does it take a long time to load and save files?
Will storage be a problem if I am taking lots of shots in one day?
Is the camera good in low light?
Would you recommend this camera?

And if not, please could you tell me which you think is best for me.
I can push budget slightly:)
Danke.

Super wide angle lens for my camera?

Hi,

I'm a newbie photographer.

I've been using the Nikon D800 for making short films, but recently I felt that I didn't have a wide enough lens. So, I'm now hunting for a super wide angle lens that will hopefully fit my budget.

I definitely do not want to spend too much on a single lens for a very subtle or almost unnoticeable advantage. The less expensive, the better.

Thank you!

How to get my Nikon DSLR to focus in low-light settings?

So, I can NEVER take pictures when it comes to restaurants, bars, outside carnivals, etc.

Tomorrow I have a lunch thing and we wanted some good pictures and I really want my camera to focus. Currently it will just produce blurred pictures in low-light settings.

I am in manual mode, have set my ISO to 1600, set it to white balance and shutter speed to 1/2 a second. The pictures come out bright in the low-light setting I made for myself but still won't focus on the object.

Any tips? Thanks.

Which is better for creative photography?

I am buying a new DSLR camera soon and am torn.
I have looked at plenty of reviews of the Canon EOS Rebel T3 and of the Nikon D3100.

I have heard better things about the Nikon, but they seem to mainly be focused on the pros for people who are more interested in more pro. Photography.

My Nikon COPLEX won't turn on after charge inch it for 2 hours?

I got my nikon camera 2 years ago for Christmas. It worked for a long time and then I lost the charger. Recently I found my charger and I went to charge it. I plugged it into the wall and the camera. The little green flashing light came on that shows that it's charging. It would flash for about 30 seconds and then the light would turn off. Then I tried turning it on and it didn't do anything! I was wondering if I need to get a new battery pack? It doesn't take batteries like AA or AAA it has a little rectangle battery pack. What's wrong with my camera?! Please help!

How do make my images lighter?

Basically, I recently bought a Nikon D3100 and I'm quite new to the whole photography thing. My problem, however, is that whenever I point the camera at something that is even the tiniest bit dark, it will look fine on the screen, however, when I take the picture and look back at it, it will be almost completely dark! I've tried changing all of the settings and everything but none of that helps. When there is plenty of light, the picture looks the same both on the screen and when I look back at it after I've taken the picture, the problem only occurs when there is just a hint of darkness. Please help?

What is the differences between Nikon lens 18 x 300 and 28 x 300?

My fathers birthday is coming up and be really loves taking pictures and Photoshop and stuff. I always love to surprise my family and friends with there birthday gifts so I asked my mother what she thinks would be a good idea. She said he wants a new lens for his Nikon camera. Either the 18 x 300 or the 28 x 300. He is unsure of which he wants.

So I would like to know what the differences between the two lenses are. I mean there is only a a little differences between the size, one 18 the other 28 so what can one do that the other cant and so on like that.
And because I seem to be a little tight for cash at the moment sadly if anyone knows a good price and or maybe some kind of coupons for one that would be great.

I really appreciate this. I am the most horrible researcher ever. So anything anybody knows would be a great help!
Thank you!

Crop factor on Nikon DX lenses?

I know that if I buy an FX/full frame lens for my Nikon DLSR with an APS-C sensor, then there's an approximately 1.5x crop factor applied, so that a 70-300MM FX lens attached to a DSLR would actually have a zoom range equivalent to about 105-450mm.

However, if I buy a 70-300mm DX format lens, which are specificly made for APS-C cameras, does the crop factor still apply (thus still producing a 105-450mm range), or is it a true 70-300mm?

How to calculate Net Income from Retained earnings?

Hi. I'm a Japanese learning Accounting in English, so I'm sorry if my English sentences sometimes don't make sense to you all.

I 'm trying to calculate 2013 Net Income of this company called "Nikon", using three financial statements provided in the link below. According to my professor, 2013 Net Income = 2013 Retained Earnings - 2012 Retained Earnings + Dividends paid. I tried this formula.

345,692(million Japanese yen) - 319,823 + 15,842=41,711

Based on my calculation, 2013 Net income should be 41,711 million JPY; however, the income statement from the link below says it's 42,459 million JPY.

Camera DR is it that important?

am i reading too much into DR

my d90 have a supposed value of 12.5 DR now im not sure how this is measured but i seem to focus in on this value more than any when selecting a camera.

im interested in a canon 1d mark III mainly because its a beast of a camera, looks great and fast, not to mention IQ is great too id like to use one can always resell if its too big and heavy ive completely flipped from light weight to liking these big pro camera.

but the DR is measured at 11 only, now most canons are less than nikon is DR.

whatm are you thoughts is a DR value of 11 enough do its really matter

ps i hate using filter to much messing about for my needs so i like to have good skys naturally out of camera if possbile the 12.5 was good enough on d90 but was hoping to go up in this value not down.

Nikon D7000 and 50mm 1.8D opinions?

So I finally decided on a camera and lens I want to buy… A nikon d7000 and a nikon 50mm 1.8D. From the sample pictures online it looks like a really amazing camera and lens for photography. Well, is it? Does it have good focus? Is it hard to work with? Sorry for all the questions, I just want to make sure I am making the right choice. I want this camera to be the camera that I start my photography career with, so it has to be close to perfect. Also, I was tied between the d90 and the d7000 which is better? I'm guessing the d7000 because it's more expensive ;)

Well,my question is how to balance the exposure of a photo in different situation.
I read an article of Sunny F16,where it states that at F16 your shutter speed will be 1/ISO ie if you set ISO - 100,then shutter speed will be 1/100 or 125 at f16.

Then what about shutter speed at other light condition such as when i set aperture to f11(bright cloudy),f8(cloudy),f5.6 etc and ISO is 100.

Is F16 rule in different light condition work-
eg) suppose i set f8 ie overcast and ISO - 100 then shutter speed will be 1/400 or 1/500.

I tried in app called CAMERASIM, but failed to get right result.

Please help.
Thanks.

Is it possible to buy a Canon 65mm MP-E and a special ring to make it fit onto a Nikon?

I'm still pretty new to Macro Photography and I was looking for a better lens than what I have now, my lens only goes to 1:2 magnification and I want to go way beyond that.

I've read about bellows but I think lenses are the better way to go for taking photos such as insects etc. I see that Canon made a lens that goes up to 5x magnification. Since I have a Nikon, this lens abviously won't fit. Is it possible to buy a ring to make a Canon lens fit onto a Nikon? If that is possible, is there any downfalls to it?

Or does anyone have any suggestions for how I can get super close up micros with Nikon equipment? Thanks!

Is it safe to buy a camera off of Amazon?

I am currently in the process of buying a camera, though I have a camera shops where I live they all seem to charge high prices compared to amazon. I would have been fine buying it off of amazon until I read about grey market models being shipped, the thing is I can't seem to find out whether or not these were bought directly from amazon, or from a third party seller, I f I bought it off of amazon I would get it directly from them, is this safe and reliable, or would i get a grey market model. Also what would happen if it got lost in transit, I know previously from buying with Amazon that they send another copy out straight away, though that was with a DVD a fraction of the price of a camera, do they do the same thing with higher priced items. Oh and if this helps, I am currently looking at the Nikon D7100 and the D610. Thanks for any answers.

DSLR Camera and lens compatibility?

I have a Nikon D5200

I was looking at the Nikon Nikkor IF 24-120mm f/4-22 SWM Standard Zoom Lens
It says it is AF-S on Silent mode, which I know AF-S is necessary for the D5200.

Question is, will this lens be compatible and work well with the D5200?

It is an FX lens, but it says it is compatible with DX as well.
I just want to know I am not wasting money and dampen the benefit with some non-compatible qualities.
Thanks in advanced

How to choose a dslr that fits my criteria?

I'm wanting to buy a dslr below $1000 at least. I wanna use it to take photos when I attend events like basketball games, or concerts. Maybe occasional family or friend gatherings, too. But I'm getting one for the more crowded and bigger occasion. I want a dslr that takes nice HD, with great focus. I don't really know the technical parts of it, but I'm thinking of reading the manual and looking up other things. Also, I want one that takes good motion pictures… Like even though the object is moving, it'll still capture it without blurriness. I'm not sure, but I think there are ones that take multiple pics in one click so you can choose with one has the best shot. Is there a camera like this? I also want it to be Canon, Sony, or Nikon, but other brands that fits my criteria will be a great recommendation, too. If you have other advice for me on how to look/buy a good dslr, pls tell me.

Thanks.

Hello, I just bought a Rebel T2i as my first Dslr, and I have the Kit lens, and the EF 50mm f.1.8 II. But while i was deciding what body to purchase, i was looking at some nikons and saw that it seemed like nikon had more options for lenses. They had the 35mm 1.8g aswell as the 50mm 1.8g and i cant seem to find a 35mm for the canon that doesn't cost like $400. When the nikons is half that. Why is that?

A Good DSLR for me compared to the D3200?

So I'm looking for a better camera. Right now, I've been using a Canon ELPH 300HS, which has served me well. However, I'm planning on filming more "professionally", in both youtube videos and in my own little projects. From what I seen on Black Friday, the Nikon D3200 would be a great camera for me. The video quality seems to be superb, and overall, the general consensus is that it's the D3100 on steroids. I believe it also has a mic port and the ability to transfer files wirelessly to your computer.

One thing, however, is missing for my tastes. That is, super slow motion video capture. The D3200 seems to be an absolutely fantastic camera, and among the best available, even when going over it's actual price range. However, being able to shoot faster than my Canon 300HS's 240fps at 240p would be a big thing for me. I would like to into 500-600fps at a respectable resolution (360p?).

So, all things being similar, like great video, good pictures, autofocus. And all that good stuff, including wireless file transfer, that's pretty cool… What camera would give me the super slow motion video capture I need, and still compares well to the D3200?

Hope someone can help… Thanks!

Just bought a Nikon D5000, need some help/info/advice on lens choice?

Hi!
I recently just got a Nikon D5000 (Kit w/ AF-S DX VR 18-55mm lens). I'm somewhat new to photography, but know some basics. I'm looking into lenses because I want to mainly take portraits/band promotional pics/concert pics.

I was wondering what a good lens would be to do these? I've looked into the
Sigma 30mm f/1.4 EX DC HSM Lens
Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX Lens
Nikon 50mm f/1.8D AF Nikkor Lens

As I said, I'm new to this (amateur), but any help/info/advice would be greatly appreciated!

Also, any feedback on the Nikon D60 would be cool, too. I found really cheap online and was thinking also getting that one as well. And as much as I would love to get the D5100, it wasn't in my price range at the moment.

Thanks again!

First Photography Jobs Help

I am a student photographer who is recently being asked to do photography jobs. I've been taking pictures forever but actually using what I've learned in school for over a year now. I take pictures of my kids and friends/family for practice and fun.

I've recently been asked to do indoor/outdoor portrait shots of kids and family. I've been asked to do action and promo shots of a band in a studio session and also a low key wedding of about 30 people.

My equipment I have is a Nikon D3100, Nikon D7100, 18-55 kit lens, 18-105 kit lens and a 50mm 1.8g lens. I also have a Bower SFD926N Flash. In studio I have a very basic backdrop with a two umbrella light set up in a very small space.

I am super nervous about these jobs. Does anyone have any advice/tips? Equipment suggestions for each shoot? Toddler/Baby photography tips? Also, should I charge? If so, what should I charge?

Also should I get a 35 mm 1.8g lens? Any suggestions on good wide angle lens?

Thank you for your help!

Is a DSLR worth my money?

I am considering purchasing the Nikon d3200 and have some questions.

I am looking to take short scripted video clips, not long speeches or interviews.

Will a DSLR overheat if I:
Take lots of short clips (30 seconds-1 minute) I'm using to put together a movie with short scenes, but I'm wondering if I take lots of short clips, will the sensor overheat like it does while videoing a 15+ minute interview? Because these takes are separated instead of one long one, will the DSLR still overheat?

Also, is a DSLR worth my money as opposed to an HD video camera? I know DSLRs give a more professional look to your videos and take great stills, but there are some set backs like overheating that I am concerned about. Thanks for your advice! :)

What's a better purchase: a DSLR or a HD video camera?

Is a DSLR a better camera to purchase for video and stills than a HD video camera?

I would like to take good quality video footage. I've done a lot of research on the different features and pros and cons of DSLRs. The biggest concern I would have with purchasing a DSLR is that they overheat. I would like to take great crisp, clear video footage, and I've read over and over that a lot people take video with DSLRs these days. An advantage of owning a DSLR is they also take great stills. (I'm looking at buying the Nikon d3200)

Although video cameras are designed for taking video, they don't seem to have a movie/professional look to them, where DSLRs do. Video cameras do not overheat like DSLRs, which is an important detail when taking a video.

Basically, what is YOUR opinion? A video camera or a DSLR? Both have pros and cons, but in the end, which is worth my money? Thanks! :)
