I want to know whats the "standard" camera lens for the Nikon cameras of 52mm. Most of my friends has the 18-55mm lens on them but I´m confused, I thought that 18-55 only can be applied to 58mm. Can you please orient me about this matter?. Any explanation will be helpful. Thank you!

Answer
You seem to have the filter thread measurement confused with the focal length of the camera.

Many of the Nikon lenses have 52 mm filter threads. The Nikkor 18-55 mm lens uses 52 mm filters. Canon 18-55 mm lenses use 58 mm filters ... a totally different company.

Here is a partial list of current Nikkor lenses that also use 52 mm filters

* AF-S Nikkor 24 mm f/2.8
* AF Nikkor 28 mm f/2.8D
* AF Nikkor 35 mm f/2D
* AF NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8D
* Micro-NIKKOR 55mm f/2.8
* Micro-NIKKOR 105mm f/2.8
* AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6G ED II
* AF-S DX Zoom-Nikkor 55-200mm f/4-5.6G ED

There are other manual focus legacy lenses that also 52 mm lens filters

I have Nikon cameras, so lens needs to be compatible.

Answer
APS-C or FF?

If you are doing FF then the 24-70mm f/2.8 is a minimum must have lens. You probably want to add a 85mm f/1.8 and a 70-200mm f/2.8 at some point.

If you are shooting APS-C then you will want to look into the NIKKOR 17-35mm f/2.8 and a AF-S 50mm f/1.4.
