I have a nikon D5000. I love it. I have the 18-55 lens and the 55-200 zoom lens. I don't have any accessories for my camera. I would like to get some filters and a hood and a external flash attachment. I don't really know much about any of that stuff. I'm curious as to what i need to get along with what each thing does.
what do filters do? What does a hood do?
and when to use them. Also when is a good time to use the flash?
any other accessories you recommend and why to use them and in what kind of situations.
I have a Nikon D7000 that i'm shooting sports with?
I'm attempting to get individual shots of Volleyball players indoors.
My problem is I'm having trouble getting the camera to fire fast enough to catch the action of the players.
I've talked to some friends and they feel its got something to do with my focal points. I've adjusted the focus metering button but have the same results. We're wondering if the reason it sometimes doesn't shoot, is if its focusing on two many faces (which I can see several boxes in my viewfinder.
ANY suggestions on where to go to reduce my focal points to the single one (vs finding 4/5+ faces) would be fantastic. Thanks ahead of time.
Added (1). I'm not far off the court. And I've not tried Manual. Sometimes there just isn't enough time to adjust, but might try it again tomorrow. I got the single focal point set (using AF/M switch and button). Not sure if it will help, but will find out tomorrow. I do know that I've got only the 1 focal square vs. 4+ focal squares now, when I focus my camera.
Added (2). FYI - Love my camera. I'm a beginner photographer. Two friends that are far more experienced and shoot weddings, sports, seniors and more.own the Nikon 300 and 700. Both have said my D7000 is equivilant to their D700s' (with the exception of DX vs FX) - in general - they said they were very impressed! So yes - Get it. I suggest highly.

My camera lens is making a weird noise and won't focus
I have a nikon D50.it's a little old but works amazingly well! Today i went to take some pictures (in automatic focus) and the lens made a weird noise. It was a scratching or screeching noise. And it wouldn't focus. The lens works fine if it is in manual. But I'm worried about the lens. I think one of my friends messed with it while i wasn't looking and broke something?
is there anything inside of the lens that could have broken to make a weird scratching noise? Or could it just be dirt?
I just don't understand how it makes that noise in automatic but it doesn't make a sound in manual.
does anybody know what i should do?

Is yashica cs-220 auto flash compatible with nikon d3100 dslr?
Standard AF-S 18-55 lens.
Lens switch set to A; in auto mode. Half press the shutter release and it does focus (motor whirrs, lens moves etc.) but the in-focus light is flashing and the shutter won't release.
Have tried AF-Lock - no change.
Any Clues?
