[QUOTE="§am, post: 229869, member: 9187"] I would say go for a prime if you can as you have capable lenses already to cover the kind of photogrpahy you're currently doing. On a budget, go for the 35mm or 50mm f/1.8G (I have the later) and either of them will do you proud. If you're after another zoom, then again at around the same price as the primes above you can pick up an 18-105mm f/3.5-5.6G, which gives you a slightly better reach for day to day use than your 18-55mm. As already mentioned, it overlaps your 55-200mm a bit more than you might like, but to be sure of what that actually means to you, just look at how many pictures you have taken with that lens in the 55-105mm region, and then above the 105mm mark. That should help determine whether the 18-105 is a good fit for your needs or not. There is also the major factor of, what exactly is your tight budget?? There are deals to be had in the used market if you're willing to hunt around. [/QUOTE]
