[QUOTE="hark, post: 404201, member: 13196"] You've received some positive comments towards the 18-55mm zoom so here's a benefit for the 50mm: it is an f/1.8 lens which means it is faster. It will focus better in low light situations plus it will allow you to have a shallower depth of field. As the others have said, choosing one lens over the other is a matter of personal preference. Both lenses have their advantages...you just need to decide which advantages are important at this stage of the game. :) Welcome. :cool: [/QUOTE]
