My suggestion is: AF 35mm f/2D and a 50mm f/1.8D. Very robust lenses, fast autofocusing and very, very affordable, and you'll be able to use same filters (both have a filter diameter of 52mm). The lens I would avoid: 35mm f/1.8 DX (horrible amount of distortion, in my opinion).</p></blockquote><p></p>
