[QUOTE="JDFlood, post: 194474, member: 11653"] Personally, I much prefer a 35mm lens on a full frame. I hear that pro-journalists do also. The extra depth of field... All I know is, I am never going back. For general photography, the equivalent is around 24mm. It makes you get a little closer sometimes, but the result is sharper, more dramatic photos. The 50mm thing was for "Kodak", family oriented pictures. Three heads of relatives or stand back and get five folks in the photo. Not so much for dedicated amatures and pros. Give it a try, 24mm before you commit, sure wished I changed years before I did. JD [/QUOTE]
