VR does indeed stand for "Vibration Reduction", whereas Sigma for example puts OS on their lenses (optical stabilization). It would be better if they would all use the same terms haha. But Nikon does indeed make very good kitlenses so perfect for a beginner, but I hardly use mine anymore tho.

All you have to do is aim at what you want in-focus & half-press the shutter button, then aim at what you want blurred & snap. The first part will be sharp & the latter will have that wonderful bokkeh.

It's an AF-P lense. AF-P lenses use a Pulse motor and are quieter and smoother to autofocus than an AF-S lens, making these lenses ideal when shooting video with a DSLR.

Hi Ilias, I’ve just bought a d3500 with 18-50 kit lens and i’m thinking of buying a sigma 17-50 f2.8. I’m planning to do some street photography and maybe some club photography (so lowlight conditions). Would you recommend it or should I buy something else? Thank you for your time 😁

Μία χαρά ο φακός! Δεν έχω τον 18-55, έχω τον άλλον kit φακό, τον 18-105 και εξακολουθώ να τον χρησιμοποιώ! Όσο για την μπαταρία, που έφυγες χωρίς αυτήν, την έχω πατήσει με τον φορτιστή! Έφυγα από Αθήνα για χωριό και ο φορτιστής έμεινε σπίτι...

Ο 18-105 νομίζω πως είναι ο τέλειος φακός για ταξίδια! Τον έχω προτείνει σε όσους μου λένε ότι θέλουν μια κάμερα και έναν μόνο φακό για τις εκδρομές τους. Φεύγω την άλλη εβδομάδα για χωριό οπότε αυτό που έπαθες θα το έχω άγχος σοβαρό 😂

"Is this lens useable?" I absolutely detest reading that comment. Does it fit on your camera and can you take photos with it, if so then yes, of course it's bloody "useable".
@IliasKoureas
27 күн бұрын
Man if you can't understand the statement like everyone else i don't know what to tell you. Just because some lenses fit in your camera that doesn't make them usable nor should you spend your money on them. Some lenses are straight garbage. This one isn't. I love Nikon kit lenses (at least most of them)

1) I need to know what your budget is! 2) You can cover most of the photography Genres but you will have a hard time when the sun goes down. These two lenses are not built for low light situations. Also If you like Bokeh for portraits you will have some problems with those things as well. But they are perfect travel kits. If you are into Travel/outdoors photography they are perfect 3-4) Again i need a budget to answer these questions
