I've got something similar in my collection:

B&W makes everything beautiful, even my pictures!

I grew up analogue. Never had the time or money to pursue photography as a hobby myself though. I see the taking of the picture and the software editing afterwards, as two different disciplines. Photography and art. They often cross paths but sometimes people are either one or the other. Photographer or artist.

I wonder how available infrared film is these days? Just look what you can do with it:

Can anyone elaborate and tell me what is the difference between E-Mount and A-Mount..

I am thinking of buying a camera any one of these two.. Your suggestions which one should i buy and why..?

www.sony.co.in/product/nex-3k

www.sony.co.in/product/dslr-a290l

The price should be around 20k INR ie about $400 only..

Please use English to explain whatever u want.. coz i'm no mathematician i dont understand numbers..
[Off-topic] jaszek:
The E mount and the A mount are just two different types of mounts for the lenses. Each camera maker usually has its own mount. The mount does not affect the image.
[Off-topic] Akash Singh:
So do i have to ask for that particular type of lens if i go for buying some new ones or all sort of lenses will fit on both of 'em... also which of the cameras should i go for..?
[Off-topic] jaszek:
You would look for the lenses that fit the mount your camera is. For example Canon uses the EF mount, while nikon Uses the F mount (i think). The lenses can't be switched around, unless you have an adapter.
[Off-topic] dexter93:
You think well. But not all switches are possible, as there are lots of incompatibilities between them. For example : you can mount a F mount lens on a Canon , but not an EF lens on a Nikon. Also switching lens with adapters is not recommended

[Off-topic] veeman:
Canon also has the FD mount from back in the day.

---------- Post added at 12:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:12 PM ----------

That's because the Nikon mount is smaller than Canon's.

I'm asking because 1. I don't have a real camera yet. 2. I've been practising taking pictures. I'm trying to frame my subjects/objects better and to use lightning to make the picture interesting without taking away from the subject I'm trying to focus on

[Off-topic] jaszek:
I usually find the right balance after a few test shots. Also the reason why I go wide with the lens, wider focal length, more DoF with wider apertures.

They don't really react, but then again, I always lower the flash power a little.

For ****s and giggles I take my flash gun, set it to 1/1 power, and press the test buttons. I think my record is blinding a group of 8 people at once for about a minute. It hurts more when it's dark, since your pupils are open wider (hey just like camera lenses, lol)

[Off-topic] TheSkinnyDrummer:
Tru dat. But FDs were the standard for over 20 years, so they're a dime a dozen in the marketplace nowadays. Bodies are a different story, like you said.

My point was that I'm able to use a modern digital with 30+ year old glass for cheap. Best of both worlds. But I shoot video though, not so many stills, so I like the softness of old lenses for motion picture.
