[QUOTE="aroy, post: 313645, member: 16090"] I find the 18-55 sharp enough for street shots. Street photography is rarely ideal for sharp shots, and is more about capturing the moment. Zooms are convenient, but if you want sharpness and microcontrast, stick to primes, they are much cheaper for what they deliver. For the focal length which will be most useful, just analyze the shots taken with 18-55, and see if there is a particular FL or a narrow range you are shooting most of the time. In my case it is either 18mm or 55mm, rarely in between. The most appropriate option after the 35mm, for street photography would be the 50mm F1.8G. For portraits the 85mm F1.8G. [/QUOTE]
