Hi,
I own a nikon d3100 and a nikkor 18-55mm standard zoom lens that came with the camera, as well as a nikkor 55-200mm zoom lens, both are vibration reduction editions. I am currently trying to purchase a 3rd lens, and i am unsure about what lens is best to purchase at this point. I was thinking about purchasing a wide-angle lens, perhaps the Nikkor 35mm f/2D. I am looking to take more landscape shots, and i was reading that this lens, and wide-angles in general would be good for a certain range of close ups? Not sure about the truth of that statement. Or, i was wondering if i should maybe get a Close Up Macro lens, maybe a Micro-Nikkor 60mm f/2.8D. I know that would be great for close up shots in general. Or maybe even a Standard lens like the Nikkor 50mm f/1.4G. Basically im looking for a little guidance as to what lens would be a good 3rd lens for a beginner in photography but who is looking to make it a serious hobby. My price range is here is at around $550 tops.
Any and all suggestions and feedback are greatly appreciated
Thanks
