[QUOTE="Bill16, post: 333249, member: 15356"] I seem to be drawn to prime lenses. When choosing a lens to use I always seem to lean towards prime lenses. I've heard that zoom lenses can be awesome these days, so why am I stuck on prime lenses? Are my zoom lenses not very good? Or is it just me? I love the idea of zoom lenses but when it comes to using them, I tend to be less happy using them than I am using primes! I've only been a photographer for just over a year, so it can't be because of old film days tech habits. Anybody got a idea why I'm such a prime junky? Lol :) For an example. I have a Nikon 1 V1 with 3 lenses, 1 prime and 2 zooms, and once I put my 18.5 prime lens on I am very reluctant to change the lens out for one of my zooms! Anybody know why this is? [/QUOTE]
