Thanks! The kids and their activities was the reason I went and picked up a camera and started taking pictures.... (one of the boy) Added bonus, they both get a kick out of looking at the results.... Vain little monsters...

Wolfgang has been talking lenses with me.

I'm thinking of getting the Nikon 35mm 1.8. It looks like it takes some really nice photos.

What do you guys think?

If I decide to get it, I'll do so tomorrow.

Do you know if the d40 has the snap on clear plastic LCD cover like the other models? I can't seem to find it anywhere, also the "remote" works for the d40 right?

WARNING! BEWARE OF LOW-QUALITY LIGHTSTANDS! Recently, I purchased a lightstand at a bargain price, but after using it for just one nighttime
shoot, it seized up and could not be used. I tried to return it, but the seller refused; he told me it was a one-night stand. ;-)

I just got back from San Jose Camera, they took me for a 35mm 1.8f lens, a UV filter for it, and a remote.

Smart move. I dont leave the store without a UV filter on it.

Congrats on the new pickup!

The remote is fun for night pictures.

Same here, every lens I've bought I immediately got the UV filter.

It had some dust in it from the package so I cleaned it with some canned air and voila, it was ready to roll.

This lens is super light.

and yet it has a metal mount. The front glass doesn't move so dust wont get into the lens as easily. A circular polarizer would be a good candidate for this lens since the front element doesn't rotate.

These were both shot with the 35mm on 1.8 with the built in flash, not the SB-600.
