[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 74099, member: 3903"] I think the 35 might be a little more versatile for general use, but for portraits I prefer the 50 on a cropped sensor (DX). You can get closer with the 35 to frame a little tighter, but there is a little bit of unnatural distortion that makes the face look strange. Give it a try with your zoom at these different focal lengths and you'll see what I mean. [/QUOTE]
