[QUOTE="Horoscope Fish, post: 511297, member: 13090"] The field of view will be the same on your DX body with a 50mm lens as that of an FX body with a 75mm lens, yes. It's not so much a matter of what's better, really, I just find the 35mm focal length is a little more flexible than the 50mm on a DX body. When using a prime lens you're going to be "zooming with your feet" as we say and the difference between 35mm and 50mm is only a few steps. If I need to however, I can crop a 35mm image to match that of the 50mm but I can't widen a 50mm image to match that of the 35mm. Seriously though, they're both excellent lenses and you couldn't go wrong with either one. [/QUOTE]
