[QUOTE="spb_stan, post: 683795, member: 43545"] A nice thing about shooting DX is that with a lot of people moving to Fx, there are some real bargains to be had in used lenses. Used lenses usually are a better investment than a used camera body because you are likely to keep lenses longer than a body. Your D500, however, is in no need up upgrading for a very long time. Your original thought of getting the narrower range zoom might be the best bet for your style of shooting.For that 35-50 range. I would look around for a used 35mm or 50mm 1.8G. They both have really good performance. The 50mm is a full frame lens which means on a Dx sensor the image circle that hits the sensor will be sharper corner to corner. Consider the Tamron also, after having a few Sigma's and getting a 15-30 2.8 Tamron 2 weeks ago I have to admit the build quality and performance of the Tamron is pretty darned impressive with image excellent stabilization, better than VR in any of my Nikkor lenses.
