[QUOTE="JohnMacPherson, post: 294177, member: 24104"] Just adding my two cents in as a relative newcomer.... Recently bought the 35mm f/1.8 lens and using it outside I immediately noticed that my images were sharper, brighter and with much better contrast than the 18-55 lens. I also noticed that the photos picked up finer details than before too. Also used it for the first time as walk about lens over the weekend and as others have said before there are some disadvantages versus a zoom lens. There were times where I wished I had the 18-55 instead purely out of convenience but I still got some great shots and I found myself thinking more about where to stand, angles etc. instead of just zooming in or out. In my opinion 35mm lens was the best purchase I've made so far regarding lenses and pretty much stays on my d3300 full time now. [/QUOTE]
