My nikonl35 af film camera shutter is jammed. How do I fix this?

I have a nikon l35 af film camera and it's second hand so the shutter button was always a little stiff but it worked. But recently the shutter button jammed completely and I can't press down and I can't turn the camera on and of without a whole lot of force. How can I fix this why is this happening and who can fix this! I really want to fix it since I have a roll in there that I don't want to waste

How to put an attachment on my Nikon d3200?

I bought a Vivitar 0.43x Wide Angle Lens to attach to lens of my Nikon D3200. Before I bought it, I did some research and was under the impression I was getting the right product for my camera, but when I received vivtar attachment, it was too big. I keep researching but I can't find what I did wrong. From what I have found, I got the right product. Am I putting the attachment on wrong or what?

Which Digital Camera to purchase?

Short and sweet: I am looking for a good camera, capable of shooting portrait photography, landscape, and possible runway. Basically, an all around capable digital camera. I want speed, image quality, a diamond that can be utilized.

The one's I have been looking at:

Nikon D300
Canon EOS 30D, 40D
Nikon D5100
Nikon D5300

Absolutely cannot decide. I keep weighing options, looking at reviews, but I would like to hear some more thoughts on what I want in a camera. If it's an older camera that can do the same thing as a new one, be sure to mention it, along with any pros and cons (if you feel like exploring the topic).

Thanks!

Nikon D5100 shooting black photos?

I recently received an older 135mm lens for my nikon most likely dating back to the late 80s or early 90s. Its switched to manual mode and can shoot video perfectly fine. When I go to take pictures, the photos turn out completely black unless I greatly decrease the shutter speed.

Decreasing the shutter speed only gets me slightly brighter pictures. I understand this is most likely caused by some incompatibility with the lens and camera but I want to know if there's anything I can do to at least brighten the photos or change some settings around

Vignette problem on my Nikon D7000?

We had a pictorial at a studio yesterday. I used my Nikon D7000 and my Nikon AF-S NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8G Lens. At first it was fine but then the vignette slowly appeared on the side. We used flash trigger in the studio and set my white balance at 'flash'.

I don't know what's wrong. Is it the lens or my camera? Or probably just my settings?

Which fisheye lens is best for my camera?

Recently Purchased a Sony NEX FS-100 camera for use with my filming but I'm a little inexperienced with the riff-raff and technicalities of all of the lens qualities and such that comes with it all. Basically, I've got a 77mm AF-S Nikkor 24-120mm 1.4G Lens that I'm going to attach onto the Sony with an adapter. I'm simply looking for a fisheye lens to slot onto that but I can't seem to find one anywhere without it saying 'make sure it fits with this', and do you have the 'so-and-so' to go with it or 'you can't have "this" without "this"!', it all seems a bit of a struggle for such a simple request!

Price isn't much of an issue, though I've seen fisheye's reach as high as £1400 which is just ridiculous. Obviously, cheapest is best for me - I've seen them go for as low as £20 for the quality I'm looking for (but that goes back to the first paragraph. Apparently this particular one wouldn't fit my lens.) - as long as it has the 'fisheye' look, that's all I care about for now. Qualities and preferences will come later when I'm a little more experienced!
