Protector Nikon

Nikon d90 assistance?

i just purchased a Nikon d90 kit with the 18-105mm lens, and i was wondering what kinda of memory card to get. Also, the person i ordered the camera from said i NEEDED a UV lens protector or else if i got one scratch on my lens it wouldn't work. Is that statement true?

You need a SD card many prefer the SD HD cards because they record information a bit faster if you need it. I recommend a Sandisk 4GB this is because of less instances of people reporting problems with the Scandisk brand with Nikon. The 4GB is a good size due to if you transfer the images to your computer you can then burn them to a DVD without having to splitting up a set of images. I would say 2GB are great also they are cheep and hold lots of pic's, I have 4 in my bag as additional storage if I need them. 8GB and 16GB work if your shooting alot of RAW and transferring to a computer and editing then these are kinda what you would want. The larger 32GB SD cards I haven't heard much use of them yet.

The UV lens. I can't ever tell a person they have to have this. I do tell everyone to get a Clear filter for protection of the fount lens. The UV lens have different effects to different conditions when taking photo's, where the clear lens don't. Always remember to put the lens cover on for protection.
