[QUOTE="todd7500, post: 652410, member: 44095"] Welcome. Love the 35mm. So much in fact that my next purchase might be a 50. Sometimes you just cant move a few steps.They are cheap and they are VERY sharp (at least the 35 f/1,8 that i bought). Cant ask for more. More intriguing is the "to dark" issue. I am not an expect but I think I would look at that problem first then get other lenses. Have you tried jacking up the exposure compensation a stop or two and see if that makes it better? Might also try the matrix metering. I was troubled with some dark images and it got better quick when AI figured out (DAH) that that I was using the center weighted metering and my focus point was often on a dark part of the scene. Is your ISO set to auto, or at least high enough for indoor work? There is bunch to learn about the Nikon metering system and all the options.
