Will the AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G work with my camera body, the Nikon D3100?


A few months ago, my standard lens broke off the camera body and it would still work, but it wasn't always attached.

I recently invested in an AF NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8D without realizing that it would not enable Auto-Focus on my camera body… Oh, well, I will just have to practice manual focus for now!

Eventually, I might invest in a AF-S DX NIKKOR 35mm f/1.8G lens; it could be great for portraits but would it enable Auto-Focus on the Nikon D3100?

How to get my Angenieux 90mm f/1.8 mounted on my Nikon D7000 to focus to Infinity?

I have an Angenieux 90mm f/1.8 that I have mounted to my Nikon D7000 with an adapter but it will not focus to infinity. If I move the lens further from the sensor with another adapter will that help the lens to focus to infinity? I would love to use this lens for some video projects.

Which lens are best for filming with a DSLR?


First off, I understand camcorders are best for filming that a Digital SLR, but my interest is both Photography and Videography, so I went with could benefit me both. At the time, I only had enough money for an entry level DSLR, the Nikon D3200. My style of film is cinematic, and my inspirations are vigilante/ superheroes type show. Even romance. For me, my best interest is to have as little noise as possible, and as happy as I was with my kit Lens, I've been taking interest in a Nikon 50mm Len. Is that a good choice, and if so, which model specifically. I'm also torn between Auto or Manual focus. I know it's all on preference but I'd love to hear your opinions on which you prefer. Thank you.

Photographing Stars?


Hello all. I am currently in Helen, GA for a weekend getaway. Tonight the stars were so pretty and I desperately wanted to capture the beauty. So I unpacked my tripod and set up my Nikon D3300 to take a few shots of the night sky. I was nowhere around the city, and there were no bright lights messing with the view--not even the moon. I tried to manually focus with my 35mm lens and got nothing. The live view screen remained black. I tried again and action to no avail. No matter what I did, all that appeared was a black screen, and it was the same when I did a test shot. And yes, the lens cap was off. I have tried googling for some info on this, but all that really comes up is to make sure your focus ring is at infinity and you are in manual focus and no other light source is present. I did all of this and had no luck. None. Could someone with much more experience than this poor soul who loves to capture the world as she sees it please help said poor soul out? Is there something I am just missing? Thank you!
