[QUOTE="DaveW, post: 90223, member: 7183"] I can't find the article, well more like a blog really. It was about a guy from India who bought a camera and under advice from a photographer bought the 35mm 1.8 as an only lens to do street photography, and anything else. Then as he expanded his gear he kept to prime lenses rather than zoom. He mentions the old saying as zooming with his feet. He's more like a semi pro than a full time pro because his primary job is something to do with printing. But he's covered more than a few weddings and formal events. He has had positive feedback and offered lots more work and building up a good reputation. This I might add has been over a few years, not someone who just bought a camera and then thought he was good. My main interest in this was that he said he only uses primes and over the last year that is all I have been doing although I am heavily drawn to getting a Tokina 11-16 or 12-24. [/QUOTE]
