[QUOTE="RobV, post: 591689, member: 40570"] I have only been at DSLR photography for a little over a year, so I don't know a lot, but I have always considered any of these 18-nnn 3.5-5.6 lenses to be "kit" lenses. They are not particularly fast, subject to distortions, and built to lesser standards. I assume you have been practicing on the dogs with the 35mm? For a newborn baby, I think that will be the perfect lens. Fast enough for natural light, and you already own it. I would get the 85mm 1.8, if you want to be further from baby when shooting. It is going to be like a 127.5mm on your camera. [/QUOTE]
