[QUOTE="§am, post: 118987, member: 9187"] Sam, here's links to the two lenses at the current lowest prices in the UK; [url=http://www.calumetphoto.co.uk/eng/product//355-335A]Nikon 35mm f/1.8G AF-S DX Nikkor Lens[/url] (35mm f/1.8G £149 delivered) [url=http://www.calumetphoto.co.uk/eng/product//355-102q]Nikon 50mm F1.8G AF-S[/url] (50mm f/1.8G £155 delivered) Calumet is a reputable supplier here in the UK so you won't go wrong with purchasing from them (but if you're unsure there are other places too). One other piece of advice I can give which hopefully helps is... On your current 18-105mm lens, set it at 35mm and see what kinda pics you get, how close or far you need to be away from the subject etc, then do it all again at 50mm (or as close as you can determine 50mm to be on the ring). With the demise of places like Jessops where you could go and get a hands on feel and play, this is probably the easiest way to help determine which lens is better suited to your needs. Finally, you could hedge your bets at maybe a discount at the "Focus on Imaging" show in B'ham next week, but you'd need to factor in travel etc from E.Yorks for that, plus you may end up buying other bits & bobs too :P [/QUOTE]
