yes it can be only used for macro...no other use
As we said earlier either u should have auto extension tubes like Kenko ET so that it can meter
or u should have aperture ring on the lens so that u can change the aperture with..cheap ET
just put that ET on the SLR and fit the lens on the ET...thats all nothing more
after getting ET just try to play with different lenses on that...u would automatically learn to use it...flash is absolutely necessary
without external flash u wont be able to use whole ET else it will put shadow on the pic...
u need to dissemble the ET and make a combo whichever fitts ur need...I just used the biggest part...

Yup D3100 have the standard flash from nikon and its good...no problem...but with new needs I want a external flash now..u can practice with default flash untill u know y u want an external flash

Yes the lens is a bit short on the tele end, but that is not bothering me much. What is really bothering me is changing of lenses
Btw, Zangetsu: Have you at all checked the links I gave? You are never going to learn photography by spoonfeeding.

@sounava...yaah changing lens is sometimes difficult in some situation and really frustating in other...like I was taking a spider macro and suddenly a butterfly came...and I ran back home and changed the lens and butterfly flew away...LOL
happened to me many times...but no solution yet...
The solution can be a 18-200mm VR and a 105mm macro lens...and u dont have to run to change a lens soo frequently
