[QUOTE="Ironwood, post: 236452, member: 10447"] What is it about the 18-55 that you are hoping to improve on ? The more we know about your situation and what you want to do with your photos, will make it easier to recommend a lens, or lenses. And knowing what your budget is will also help. Landscape and portrait are 2 quite different situations, you will probably better off with a lens to suit each one. For example, a 85 f1.8 for portrait, and a wider lens for landscapes. You don't have to get both of them at once, if you got the 85 first, you could still use the 18-55 for landscape until you can get a better landscape lens. I have the Nikon 16-85, it is a very good general purpose lens, and would be a good upgrade from the 18-55 for general work. Sigma and Tamron make good 17-50 f2.8 zooms that you could also consider.
