Sometimes we all become too interested in the camera body because that is where most of the gadgets are. But it is the lens that makes the picture and most often the lens has a more direct influence on the eventual image quality 'output'. If economy is a consideration, you should consider buy a less expensive camera body rather than less expensive lenses. If you buy a SLR camera with only one lens is also not logical because you might as well buy a cheaper camera with a fixed, non-interchangeable lens like a P&S. But modern lenses has such fantastic features such as high power zoom with previously unimaginable zoom range which actually makes a single-lens-do-all photographic system viable. All those messages posted on the variuos Message Boards for SLR Models are not short of interesting comment and remarks on lenses. Well, not to confuse others who are just interested in cameras, I thought there is a neccessity for a separate Message Board for those who are interested in discussion on various issues on lenses as well..

Is it possible to put a filter on the front of the Canon FL 19mm F3.5R. If so, what is the diameter of the filter as I have seen the diameter written as 'IX'(?)

This is a question for Nikon experts: I bought an AF Zoom Nikkor 35-135mm f/3.5~4.5s N (MK II) which turns out to be a very fine wide-tele zoom lens. What surprised me is the fact that this lens seems to shut off the autofocus function when I activate the macro setting. Is this normal? My (technically different) Nikkor 28-105mm f/3.5-4.5 DOES autofocus in the "macro" range. But when I push the little chrome button on the 35-135mm and turn the zoom ring into the orange range autofocus stops working. Any information/advice would be welcome.
Best regards
Werner

Bonjour Richard:

The obvious place to look would be eBay, or the used equipment case of your local camera dealer if you have one. You will need an AI or AIS series lens to work on the FE and FM.

Hi Monty:

Yes, they should have glass in them. Without glass, they can still be useful as extension tubes for close-up work, but they do not function as tele-extenders.

I am a photographic novice! I bought (at a car boot sale) 3 Canon extenders, FD 2xA, FD 2xB and the FD 1.4xA. They do not have glass in them, should they have?
