D5100 user...fall in!! Part Two


Hi all,

I'm looking for Nikon 5100. May I know where to get good deal and what are the accessories/package that usually come with?
 

Try liao.... D5100 cannot work with Af-D lens when the lens aperture is set manually on the ring. When you release the lock on aperture ring of the AF-D lens and rotate it off from F22, the camera will ask you to set the aperture back to F22 and lock it, if not it will prompt you all the time and you cannot work with the camera.

Wah, no wonder cheap, also sure always out of stock
 

Is it all dx lenses come with built in af motor??
 

Anybody had tried the nikkor 70-300mm lens? I borrowed my frens but the af motor seems to have a tick sound n then a whirr, when i release the button, it stopped. Anyone experience this before? Is it normal?

Browse ard funan, u might get a good deal amongst the reputable shops. Usual pkg is kit lens, battery. But due to gd price, usually they dont throw in much goodies.

which model of the 70-300mm lens are you referring to? There are 3 models.

1) AFS 70-300mm G
2) AF 70-300mm D
3) AFS 70-300mm VR G

Only TG hot stock order online only 29+. 50mm g1.8 G
 

the 3rd one bro. the one we can fine under FX category in nikon website....in fact i asked my fren abt the sound, he says its the VR sound. strangely the AF is quiet unlike other lenses i have with the whizz sound but never encounter the VR sound like that.
