Low light pictures always become fuzzy/blurry?!


Im kind of a noob at photography but i really like the low light dark sinister pictures. But everytime i take a photo it becomes blurry or bleached out. Even if i hold perfectly still. I always have to use the flash but then the dark feeling is gone. Before i take the photo i look in the viewfinder or on the screen and it looks amazing but CLICK and its **** xD I tried the different "easy" settings and didnt customize anything myself.
I use a Nikon D3200 with a 18-55mm objective. Please help.

Selling my old camera?


I don't know if my camera is even worth spelling. It's about 8 years old and it's a DSLR. It's a Nikon D40. They're selling brand new for $500 currently. Reason I'm asking is because I misplaced a brand new modern camera that was a gift and now I want to sell this old one for money towards a new one that was the gift.

About the rule of 180 degrees and achieve film look in the videos?


I am an amateur and want to learn cinematography.To achieve the film look for a video, a very well known and widely used phenomenon is the rule of 180 degrees. I have found this over and over and across the numerous websites, blogs articles and books.
So taking this as basic rule to be followed, I started shooting videos in 25 fps and 50 shutter speed settings. But one day I was shooting some video outdoors in bright day sunlight. So due to excessive light, using the above settings, the video was extremely over exposed and every thing was looking bright. To correct the exposure, I had to increase the shutter speed up to around 1000th of a second and then the video got correctly exposed.(my ISO was 200 and aperture 3.5 using Nikon D3200)
So now my question is that following such changes in shutter speed, will it affect my video to achieve the film look? This is the breach of 180 degree rule too. What should one do in such circumstances?

I need to a better set of lenses for my Nikon D5300 camera?


I just have Nikon kit lens of 18-55. I do shoot at narrow apertures to get the better sharpness. But I would like to improve even further.

I was thinking at prime lens 35mm by nikon f1.77

or sigma 18-35mm or 17-70mm How is the sharpness from these?

I do not care about shooting videos much.

Also to increase the zoom range i was thinking about Nikon 55-200mm,

the old 55-200mm VR is £125.00 the new 55-200mm VR II is £250 is this new version really worth of extra money?is there a difference in sharpness?

thanks

Which Canon DSLR camera fits me best?


Hello, my 18th birthday is coming up and I really want a Canon DSLR camera. But Im too confused. At my high school, in grades 10 and 11 we had a mandatory photography class so I actually know a bit about it but there are too many cameras to choose from. I want to take pictures of nature, places and occasionally normal friend pictures. Im going to England after my 18th birthday and That s where Im planning to take a lot of nature pictures. I usually take pictures with my friends using my iphone but If let s say Im spending a vacation abroad, Id take pictures using the Camera. But it s mainly nature and video/vlogging focused. Also, I dont want to break the bank since this would be my first camera and Im not a pro. So Id like it to be under 1000$. And a camera with good focus. Ive used a Nikon camera before since my cousin owns one (dont remember the model) and I liked it but not as much as the canon. Ive used a canon EOS 600D (i think it s the rebel t3 in America?) For my photography class, Our class was based on it. I loved it and that was my top choice for picking a camera but I d like to know if there are other Canon s that suit my purpose better. Thank you!
