I have a d3100 at the moment and i'm using the 18-55 lens that came with it.
I'm looking for a prime lens as I want higher quality images
I won't be upgrading my camera body for a while yet so I want to get a good lens as when I do upgrade my body next year or the year after, i will stay with nikon.
I had my mind set on getting the 50mm 1.4 af-s but now i'm looking at the 35mm ones?
I'm don't really take many portraits or close ups and I read that the 50mm 1.4 was best for portraits and shooting in low light?
I take photos similar to this 
rather than ones like this 
Can i use old lenses on a Nikon d5000?
I mean, all manual focus old lenses… (don't know the terminology: L)
If i can, would there be a reason to avoid this?
Any lenses for the D5000?
I know the 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G lens is the stock lens, but is there anything just as good? Preferably cheaper? (second hand).
Help and Tips on my photography?
I've had a camera for a while and only recently have started to use it. I've noticed the still shots usually turn out better. 90% of the time when I take a picture of a moving thing (usually horses) they come out blurry somewhere. I own a Nikon D90, and usually have the camera mode on non-flash, is there something else I can be using when taking pictures of faster subjects? I know about aperture and all that stuff, not in too much detail but I do know how to change it. Can I go into manual mode and get a setting that is good for this? Also any tips of taking photos or how to improve on mine I will appreciate.

Best lens to use for a concert?
To be more specific, I may or may not be going to a concert on 4/20, Rihanna to be exact. IF I do get to go, of course I wanna get some solid pictures using my Nikon D3100. I only have 2 lens to my name, the widely used 18-55mm and the 55-200mm. My main question is if I sit in the nosebleeds (which I kinda don't want to but hypothetically) and use the 55-200mm, will I still be able to get good pictures? Also, if hypothetically I were to sit near the back in the floor area of the venue, will I still get good pictures with either lens?
Buying a DSLR camera.which one?
I'm 15 years old and taking photography in college later this year. I need an ugrade from my basic digital camera (fujifilm z90) and are stuck with choosing which one. I have been drawn toward the nikon d3200/ d5200/ canon 600d/ canon 650d. All of these cameras are entry level dslr's but that is all i need really. My budget is around 500 english pounds and would need a lens with it as well.
What would be a better camera for me?
The Nikon D5100 vs Canon t3i.
I know brands really don't matter, but I just want to know how you feel
I'm thinking of buying this lens http://www.amazon.co.uk/...000O161X0/ Will it fit on a Nikon d3100?
What camera would work for me?
I currently use a Nikon D50 with a Nikkor 18-200mm VR. I love this lens… I mainly shoot pictures of my dog, dogs I foster, and other dogs that come through the rescue I work with… I have also recently gotten into outdoor portraits, and wildlife(wildlife is the main reason I got a lens that would go to 200mm, and some day I want a lens that'll zoom even further). Some day I'm going to get 1 or more off-camera flashes and start working with backdrops and all that. Some day!
I almost never use the on-camera flash.
My D50 just can't handle noise well. Any picture taken at an ISO above 400 has to be trashed because it is way too noisy.
I'm ready to upgrade my camera, and need one that performs very well at higher ISO's. I'm going to stick with Nikon. What would be the best Nikon camera body for me?
Added (1). Drew, I'm not overly concerned about price. I'll buy used.
I've heard bad things about the D3200's ISO performance…
I'm going to be filming a lot with my Nikon D5100, but I have no idea how to and what tips and tricks to use. I don't know how to film and have it focus on things without it making the focusing noise and I don't know how to do a LOT of other things. Is there anyone who can help me out, or guide me to somewhere I can get help please?
