ok, here is my another new toy after the Nissin Speedlight.
Nikkor 50mm f1.8/D
i bought it frm Digitalsmania in http://www.lelong.com.my/
a very nice lens. i love the B.O.K.E.H (focus object is clear, other part looks blur) so so much.
i already attached this lens on my D40, and dun think to use my kitlens anymore.hahahaha
but,this lens cant autofocus on my D40.
so, i have to learn manual focus from now!
after get this 2 new toys, im totally POKKAI becoz of my baby D40. =(
*oh yea, 1 more thing! my camera bag cnt fit my tools liao. now i have 1 camera body, 2 lens, 1 speedlight. my bag only can fit 1 body + 1 lens.
so, anyone can buy me a bigger's camera bag? XD

Haha. congrats on yr 50mm, thr's a saying, when u have 50mm, u'll never wanna touch yr kitlens again...hahah...

well, both have it's advantages, kitlens is because of the distortion...50mm for it's clearity, sharpness and nice color.

this is a nice lens, how much you bough? i bough it about RM380.

But D40 no AF function, you need to manual adjust the focus right?

Kuntong said...

Dun worry abt the manual focusing, once you get used to it, u dun even feel like using AF at all.cz MF is way faster.
