Hi guys.

I picked up 50mm 1.8D for dirt cheap price 5.5k. And then BR2A ring to reverse it.

 

I would say results are good but I really need to go very close to subject and I wish if magnification was little better. So I am thinking of picking extenaion tubes. There is one on amazon going for 1700, fotodiox, but not sure if they will fit with lens.

Has anyone tried tubes, how are they?

A panoramic picture I took of Mount Rainier back in summer 2013. I don't think I've put it here before, but apologies if I have. I don't have a panoramic lens or some such so my only option is to stitch them. This is using the standard kit lens (18-55mm) on a Nikon D3200. I'm just an amateur photographer btw.

@Somebody below, No didn't need / use a tripod.

This one was taken on the Pacific coast of Oregon somewhere during a roadtrip I did. I think I snapped it near Florence, OR or Coos Bay.

^^ Great pic! Did you have to use a tripod to get those shots for a panorama?

 

I wanna hike Mt.Rainer :( (although I'm not fit enough to even hike a smaller mountain). We don't have many tall mountains in the midwest

New lens?

 

Nope, this picture was taken using the old 18-55mm kit lens.

 

:good: Great pic! I'm curious to know how you got the lettering/jacket bright enough without washing out the background :scratchchin:

 

Thank you :) It's actually not as bright as you think it is. The lettering is white on a grey jacket. In the picture you'll see that the grey jacket has gone black instead to get the background to look better, but somehow it brought the white lettering out relatively well. I'm no ace photog so I don't quite remember what exactly I did. It was one of several pictures I took and this one turned out well :P

^^ Haha.. I think it turned out quite well. Good job :good: Also, smart way to show off :P

 

:arigato::bigyellowgrin:

 

There's another sunset picture that I really use if I want to show off. Taken again at Cape Arago, Oregon just before New Year's day this year. Right on the edge of the Pacific Ocean with no one else around and no cities for miles. Amazing place actually and the best sunset of my life so far :wub:

Aided in the picture taking by a rock because I always forget to take my tripod along.

The diff. b/w L & P series cameras is just that l is an abbreviation of 'life' (entry level ) & P is professional (high end) .

 

U clearly don't want canon coz u'll get the same features for a lesser price in nikon , if u just want to click pics .Full HD recording is where canon shines .

 

Between l330 & l830 . Its just a matter of personal choice . L830 is marginally expensive coz it offers hd recording & has a flip out screen .

 

Good luck with your purchase !
