Awesome, you guys are fantastic!
ya I had looked around and a bunch of people were saying how great a 50mm lense is, as it's pretty close to what the human eye sees perspective wise.
The reason why I was looking for more "good" quality, is I have a screw on fish eye. It doesnt quite capture the look I want and have seen from others with an actual fish eye lense. but then I'm prolly picky
So on my list is a 50mm, 8mm (fish eye) and something wide angle (so 10-20mm)...
I need to look into a lense for landscapes too....but my 18-55 might suffice
Bear in mind that 50mm on a DX camera will be 75mm equivalent because of the 1.5x multiplication factor. This is a good focal length for most portraits.
Another option is to go for a 60mm micro. This gives you a perfect 90mm portrait lens that also covers macro if you need to get in close.
