[QUOTE="Don Kuykendall_RIP, post: 137933, member: 6277"] That is correct. The quality of the 20mm and the 35mm is better and it is faster. The main thing you were talking about in the original post was the field of view though. Prime lens (fixed mm and not zooms) is generally better. A lot of what we are talking about is sharpness. What are you using the camera for, are you making very large prints. If not and you are only using it for posting on the web then [B]most[/B] people will never know the difference. People here on the forum who are all into shooting probably will. Would I want a 35mm lens and a 20mm lens? No. I would like the 35mm and probably a 14mm but that lens cost considerably more.
