Don't get the 40mm, and don't get the SB700 now. Also, if you can afford the D3200, get the D5100 instead unless you primarily like to do video and in which case get Canon 650D instead.

You can find good macro lenses in Sigma and Tokina, but I personally would avoid them because they might not be compatible with camera 10 years down the road.

If you are willing to take the risk,...

If you don't mind me asking, why are you in such a rush to buy it fast? I don't think that's good TBH.
You need to decide what mm will work the best for you, I use a 100mm Tokina macro lens but for...

£1000 and full frame doesn't go together. You will need at least about £2000 for a new full frame body (D600), and then that much again to get the lenses.

Also, a good macro O ring is very...

Would be the same idea, but camera would either be 600D or a used 7D. Consumer lens lineup is roughly the same too, except you will have to pay quite a bit more for Canon's 35mm prime if you are...

Yeah that's a good idea as well, I was only thinking about the flash because you can use it for other things as well (shooting macro outside etc.), you can use it as slave as well (using the built in...

Realistically, if you are buying new, you have 5 choices: D3100, D3200, D5100, D7000 and D90.

D3100 is the cheapest of the bunch, and its not too bad unless you really need good pictures
D3200...

Yeah 18-105 would do good for a start, just so you get the idea of what exactly you need. I used it for shooting some product, but I have to say that having a flash unit makes a world of difference,...

If you're looking at primarily taking those kind of pictures then a wide angle lens would be for you, but expect paying more than 600 ($, € whatever) for a good one.

I didn't know you were allowed to modify the chair.. That's not selling the "existing" product if you modify it. That's creating an entirely new product.. I could put a jet pack on the chair and come...

Games Seem to Be Loading Slow

I noticed recently that many people are concerned with some of their games loading slowly.

To be fair to him, he corrected himself afterwards since the 9800gt Green Edition sucks 75w compared to the 9800gt which is more or less ~125w! :)
