gapvic Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 thanks Huga! Would I have been better with one over the other?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huga Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Ok, I think this is how it works: AF lenses have to rely on the focusing motor in the camera, as they don't have one in the lens. AF-S lenses have the motor built in to the lens. So AF lenses may be slower I have no troubles with mine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gapvic Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Ah, OK . So I'll just stick with the AF-S and see how I go. CAN'T WAIT for it to arrive :DLOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirislin Posted June 16, 2011 Author Share Posted June 16, 2011 Now I just need to get some nice photo editing software.... it's not essential, I dont do any special editing to mine, admittedly they're not as good as some here but I still love the lens and get tons of fun from it.

Lil Miss LeiLani Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 I've got lots of reading to do, struggling to get anything decent lol. Playing around with different settings but need to know what settings work in what light etc and get more understanding. I'm dying to get something really special already and get my money's worth! Lol. Loving all the photos of course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmay Posted June 16, 2011 Share Posted June 16, 2011 Yep, my 50mm is definitely my favourite lense. :D Zero editing done on any of these. Lil Miss LeiLani - I'm sure you'll get the hang of it, the best way to learn is through trial and error i've found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Miss LeiLani Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Thanks so much Jimmay!!! I hope so! Its a lot harder than I thought, but will def keep playing around with it, and slowly getting an understanding of how it all works! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmay Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Thanks so much Jimmay!!! I hope so! Its a lot harder than I thought, but will def keep playing around with it, and slowly getting an understanding of how it all works! lol Yeah I found it a lot harder than i'd expected too, this is my first dslr which I only got last month so i'm kind of in the middle of learning all of this stuff as well.

Lil Miss LeiLani Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Wow you have done great!!! I've only got a basic entry level dslr so might not get pics as good as others with better cameras lol. But still hoping to get something good of course! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
