[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 293568, member: 3903"] Lenses are to photographers what brushes are to painters. There is not one perfect lens and unless you want to specialize in something special you will eventually want (notice the "want" instead of "need") many lenses. One should start with what he can afford of course. So the 35mm is a great bargain for the first prime. What it will give you is a faster shutter speed in low light situations, plus less distortion and vignetting than the zoom lenses. If I only could afford one prime lens on a crop sensor, this is the one I'd buy first. Then, as funds become available, like others mentioned, 50 1.8 and then 85 1.8. [/QUOTE]
