Lens suggestions for nikon d3100 please?
Hello… I'm looking to buy additional lenses for my nikon d3100: telephoto and macro. For the telephoto lens, I'm thinking about getting a 55-200 mm lens and a teleconverter (x2).It is important that this lens have some sort of VR or stabilization, as I do not want to be a constant slave to the tripod. Any suggestions? I have heard sigma and tamron make more affordable, compatible lenses… Which might you specifically recommend? LIkewise, what might be a good macro option for me? So… I would really appreciate suggestions for the best quality/price of
1.a telephoto lens compatible w nikon d3100 (perhaps 55-200 mm) with VR or other stabilization
2.a teleconverter compatible with that to increase focal length
3.a macro lens compatible with nikon d3100, also with stabilization of some sort.

How to set the nikon d3100 to 'bulb' mode?
I just got one recently, and i heard you can use bulb mode to take pictures of the night sky, but i can't find it anywhere.supposively it's under ' manual ' but i still can't find it. Any help?
Added (1). Okay but for that, is the manual mode the 'M'?
And where do you go to adjust the shutter speed when you're at the 'M' on the wheel?

OK. I'm totally confused by the Nikon coding system.
For use on a D50, D90, etc, which lenses have an adjustable lens aperture?
I don't like automatic. I want to select the aperture I want at the lens.
Is it a D, G, AF, OMG…

How come my lens won't autofocus?

How to fix/avoid these problems in future pictures?
I'm new to DSLR, and am currently using the Nikon D3100.
I went to a bike convention, and noticed some pictures came out strange.
-there was a slight purple tint in areas of the picture where there wasn't IRL.
-strong lights behind an object make the picture come out weird.
Here are some examples:

Difference between Nikon lenses?
I have a D40 with the 18-55 DX lens that came with it and a 55-200 VR DX. I'm satisfied with the camera body as it does everything I need of it. However, I'd like for the images to be a bit sharper and I the sharpness issue is more of a lens issue than the pixel count. That said, how does one differentiate the cheap Nikon lenses and the really good ones? Most of the letter designations are similar between a $100 18-55 f 3.5 and a $800 17-55 f 2.8, so how does one tell them apart? And what are the differences in performance between the high dollar Nikon lenses and the cheap ones other than how fast they are? I know the cheap ones are plastic and made in Thailand or China, but I would expect the clarity, sharpness, etc is better on the good ones, or least it darn well better be.

Does the type of lenses you have determine photo quality?
I'm thinking about buying a Nikon D5000, but the lenses are so expensive.
