I have Nikkor 18-105 VR kit lense, now with my D7000, previously purchased for D3100.
At that time I thought I am smarter than other guyes who bought much cheaper and "worse" 18-55, but now with 35mm f1.8 G which is on my camera almost all of the time, I am beginning to think I made a mistake spending too much on a slow kit lens.
It is nice in theory to have that wide 18mm, and maybe sometimes 105mm for some close-ups, BUT this lens is so slow, so when I need to pull it out of the bag just to use it's 18mm, I will rather go and run 3 times around my block.
What do you think about it? I am thinking to get rid of this 18-105mm, and then buy 50mm f1.8, 85mm f1.8, and close the circle with my 35mm f1.8.
Or maybe someone has a better idea...
