[QUOTE="aroy, post: 519234, member: 16090"] I have a 18-55 and 35mm F1.8 for my D3300, The zoom is extremely flexible and good enough in good light. The prime comes on its own in low light. So though you can do with a 50mm on FX (or 35mm on DX), sheer flexibility of zoom makes it useful for fast paced professional shoots, where moving up and down for framing may not be an option. If you have all the time in the world and space to move then a prime makes sense, else it is zoom for flexibility. [/QUOTE]
