Some Questions

[akhildoegar]

Hi I am a first time user of a digicam
I bought an A40 after going thru alot of sites ( including clubsnap)
I have a few queries

Technical :

1) Wat is the function of filters on a lens?
2) Wat types of filters are there?
3) wats the talk abt 36mm vs 52mm. And wat are step up rings?

Non Technical :

1) Any recommendation for a bag for A40, not a pouch.
2) Recommendation for a tripod. I am 6 feet and dun wanna snoop. budget around 100
3)Which is the cheapest CF 128 MB card?

TIA

Pls forward any urls which explain the tech questions if u dun wanna rite it down

regards

if u wanna know more about filters u can visit this SITE
this site miss out the close up filter for better micro shots n closing up of images

as for the 36mm n 52 mm adapter for A40......actually is 37mm not 36mm.......u can know more HERE step up ring is just convert yr 37mm adapter to 57mm so that u can use 52mm filters on yr 37mm adapter

u say u need a bag not pouch??hmm.....wat u means buy that??u want it to store yr cam or together with other accessories like the adapter n filters?


correct me if i am wrong
