[QUOTE="aroy, post: 279163, member: 16090"] In my opinion you are wasting money with the F1.8 prime. These are mainly portrait lenses used for that creamy bokeh wide open. Landscapes are generally shot at f4 or more, so a F2.8 lense is a better option as . It is less expensive . If will have better distortion, CA and vignetting correction . It is smaller Secondly try out 28mm and 24mm. These give a wider view especially on a DX sensor. Apart from that, these lenses are normally FX lenses, so you will be shooting at their sweet spot. Lastly 35mm on a DX sensor give the perspective of a 50mm on a FX sensor and is considered a normal lense and not wide. [/QUOTE]
