[QUOTE="Retro, post: 417787, member: 37517"] I'd like to know what your first 50mm lens was. One thing that stuck with me when I started learning about photography was the advice to beginners to go out for a day of shooting with a prime lens. A zoom offers too much freedom to the effect that you don't learn basic skill. My previous SLR came with a zoom, so I never learned to work with a prime lens. A 50mm would probably be my first prime lens. You obviously wouldn't get into anything specialized with your first prime. You might choose it for low light, or for daylight, or general use. I want your opinions and your experience on this. [/QUOTE]
