Which lens to buy: 50mm f/1.8G or 10-20mm as first extra lens for travel to Japan? After a while, I ended up buying the Nikon 35mm 1:1.8G. I started using it and, so far, I really like it! Thanks for the suggestions...next steps will be a decent filter and a "portable" tripod :-) |

Which lens to buy: 50mm f/1.8G or 10-20mm as first extra lens for travel to Japan? Thanks John for your suggestions. About the tripo I have seen it has been ordered by Adorama (much cheaper than Amazon.com -> 159$), but they cannot estimate when will it be available. I will try to look to another shop, since I would like to have it before the end of march. If you can give me some further suggestions about polarizer filters it would be great. I have seen their effect and I like it very much, but again are they worth while or is it more the "beginner entushiasm"?! |

In which situations should I use my circular polarizing filter? +1 very good Answer! Which polarizer filter would you suggest for a Nikon 18-55mm lens? I have seen there are many, but I do not know which could be considered an "all-around" filter fitting the most situations. |

Which lens to buy: 50mm f/1.8G or 10-20mm as first extra lens for travel to Japan? Actually that friend of mine (photographer) suggested the same thing, saying that, as beginner, the 18-55mm lens would be already fine to be used as wide angle. The idea of taking a new lens (and in the specific a 50mm one) was due to the wish of getting new possibilities/results, mainly in low light conditions. I am still looking to find a good and "portable" tripod that would assist me in night photos. |

Which lens to buy: 50mm f/1.8G or 10-20mm as first extra lens for travel to Japan? +1 for the cool suggestions. Thanks a lot. About the tripod I was lookign for a Guerrilla tripod since it seems quite flexible and easy to carry around. However at the shop they told me that it is to "light" for a camera like D5100. I still found quite hard to make nice photos in low light since they are almost always out of focus (most probably also due to my inexperience with proper shutter speed). I think I will take the 50mm for Portraits and "street details" (also due to my current budjet).About polarizing filter, I read that the 50mm 1.8G needs a 58mm instead of the 52mm, is that right? |

Which lens to buy: 50mm f/1.8G or 10-20mm as first extra lens for travel to Japan? I am looking at the 50mm for its capabilities in low light. Photo details would also be very interesting since in Japan there will be thousands of small funny things to capture. I was a bit worried about different posts about focus difficulties with this lens thought. On the other side I have seen it is possible to take "normal" scenes and not only short distance portraits with with a 50mm, but not having any experience with this model I do not know. |
