[QUOTE="eurotrash, post: 60340, member: 9237"] A good zoom would likely get you what you need. Look for something in the 4-5.6 range if you have a lot of daytime shooting going on. I'd say the Nikon 70-200mm, but that's about $400US and we don't know your budget other than, "not bank-breaking". To me, $400 is pennies compared to the amount of shots I'll get with it, amount of money I could potentially make with it, and let's not forget that good glass is an investment, not an expenditure. Especially if it's a name brand lens and not a third-parties. And I can honestly say that my 35mm 1.8 has been heaven. I'm sure that the new 85mm 1.8 would be amazing for portraits, given the price! Oh, and you should check out the 50mm 1.8D lens if you don't mind autofocusing. It's one of Nikon's sharpest lenses ever and it's only around $100US. [/QUOTE]
