A whale 18-55 was included in the package that I paid $25,800 for a year ago when I purchased the gadget. Even at temperatures as low as -30 degrees, it performed admirably (I went on a business trip to Noyabrsk; though I hid it under my jacket.) Together with him, I stood in the pouring rain. He suffered through an excursion to the ocean (dust and sand.). Once, while a whale lens was still down, I was thrown into a wardrobe trunk (lowepro). The UV filter was shattered when the lens cap fell on it, and the shards of glass left a kotska on the lens illumination. In case it was necessary, he informed the clothing trunk that dense foam was present. The whale lens is effective initially, but it quickly became worn out after repeated use. I treated myself to a new 50mm 1.8G lens. The caliber of the photograph impresses me very much (when shooting in RAW). In general, everything is determined by the optics that are utilized and the hands that hold them. I would want a better and larger viewfinder. Just because I have a hard time determining where my concentration should be. When you take pictures using the Live View shooting mode and expand the region that is in focus, you will undoubtedly be successful (macro and landscapes). In order to get a sufficient shutter speed of 1/4000 with fifty dollars on a sunny day while the aperture is set to 1.8, you will need to clip the aperture. In this case, decreasing the shutter speed to 1/8000 would not be counterproductive. The fastest shutter speed possible is thirty (taking care of the matrix overheating). After purchasing a cable from the DealExtrem website, I was able to fix the issue of needing a longer shutter speed and taking photos at regular intervals. You will need to install AdobeCameraRaw on your PS5 in order for it to be able to comprehend the NEF format. The camera works well as a first "SLR" and is suitable for use during travel and business travels. After visiting the 500px website and entering "d5100" into the search bar, you realize that the potential of the camera is very large; however, there are times when you get the feeling that you have gotten everything possible out of the camera; however, after you realize this, you realize that the camera still has a lot of room for improvement. My pictures from the event can be seen in the "photos" folder. http://fotki. . Ru/users/grooz86
