I kept waiting for someone to ask me to leave since I don’t consider myself a professional photographer. The only reason I wanted to attend was in order to see Joe McNally’s session. I’ve seen a number of videos he’s…

Hmmm.. I have the Nikon 50mm 1.8… what’s the advantage of getting a 35mm 1.8?
Thanks John!
It’s just a wider prime…I’m finding I prefer to use faster primes than much slower zooms lately (can’t even remember the last time I put a zoom on my camera). At it’s price point, it’s cheap enough to have one in my bag.
I also have a 50mm f1/4 lens which is my second favorite lens after my fisheye.
