[QUOTE="Schnick, post: 474569, member: 40126"] Adit - I understood what you were suggesting, but there's two issues I have with that: 1 - The 18-55mm lens I have only has certain focal length markers, so it's not exact. 2 - The widest aperture on this lens is f/3.5. On a prime, I can get as low as f/1.4, giving better bokeh and depth of field control (obviously for portraiture). So comparing the two is difficult. Thanks for the feedback everyone. I think I'm drawn to the 35mm option at the moment, though that 30mm suggestion sounds like a nice option. [/QUOTE]
