I've been looking at getting a prime lens, and can't seem to decide between 50mm and 35. However, as I've been looking it seems the current 35mm is a DX lens, but Nikon doesn't make a 50mm DX lens. The one 50mm 1.8 that they have in their "archives" is all over e-bay new for about $130 shipped, and as I understand it that works out to be about a 75mm on a DX camera right? So if I got the 35mm DX and the 50mm from ebay then for about $330 I could have a 35mm and 75mm that are both sharp and fast and that seems to me to be a wide enough difference to make it worth it owning both right?
I have a D90, btw with the kit lens (18-105), and have an older nikkor 28-105 3.5-5.6 as well as a sigma 70-300 at my disposal.
