For sharp images you need : 1. Good technique. This means that either your hands do not shake, else you use a heavy tripod at relatively high shooting speed. At times using inbuilt flash "strobes' light ad you get very sharp images. 2. Sharp lenses. Most lenses are quite sharp at their sweet...

I d3300, at least, there is a mode "Auto" and "No Flash". In the first mode the flash will pop up automatically when needed, and in the second it will not fire.

Here is a comparison of the 3 lenses - 18-55, 50mm F1.8 and 35mm F1.8 At F11 At F8 The crop for kit and 50mm is same. For 35mm it is tighter to give approximately the same view Unless you view at 100%, there is not much difference.
