i just went over to my moms house on my way back from bear hunting and i was telling her i was thinking about buying a nice camera well she say just wait. she went into her room dug through the closet and pulled out a old camera bag she gave me her old camera she said she payed about a grand for it along time ago and that it needs repaired but its a Nikon n4004 and there isn't a scratch on it. don't know if anyone cares but i thought it was really nice of her.

A consumer grade camera from Nikon about 10 years ago. I actually shot a little bit with that camera before. I like it, but it's not digital... More importantly, what lenses does it come with?
-
it says sigma auto focus and the end says 52mm
-
52mm is probably the filter size... Do you see anything in terms of focal length? Sigma does say a lot...they are a third party lens maker that doesn't make very good lenses. At least back then they didn't.

no she told me that i would have to by a new one that this one was crappy but from my research i don't think it would be worth it i just got on eBay and you can pick one of these up in perfect running order with 3 extra lenses for 100 bucks. the other numbers i see on it are 1:3.5-4.5 f=28-70mm. :dunno: at least it was nice of her

It is a start but I'd recommend getting into a digital. You will learn so much more than with film. By the way, I see Rebel XT and 10D cameras on craigslist all the time for $300...

well i go on strike next month so when we come off i will probley try and buy a nicer one.
