"Looking at Nishant's page the quality seems fine. I don't think he would gain much in the quality area for normal uses and would certainly lose the ability to compose well using a prime lens. I had prime lenses on a couple of…"

CameraClicker replied to Nishant Mishra's discussion Why buy a 50mm prime if I have got an 18-55 mm standard kit lens?"Just to be clear, the 50 mm f/1.8 lens and the 18-55 mm kit lens probably have the same amount of glass in them based on their weight. Both are actually pretty good, optically. I still take that kit lens with me if I take a crop sensor…"
David Stutz replied to Nishant Mishra's discussion Why buy a 50mm prime if I have got an 18-55 mm standard kit lens?"I agree with you with the ease of having the 18-55mm for variouse shots that would be otherwise difficult with the 50mm prime. I was just stating that the quality that you will get from a kit lens verses a very-good 50mm 1.8 prime lens is a…"
Ron Lashley replied to Nishant Mishra's discussion Why buy a 50mm prime if I have got an 18-55 mm standard kit lens?"I'l just add my 2 cents worth. I like to have maximum flexibility and less gear. If you shoot night scenes maybe a prime is good but for most photography in daylight you would do better to get a zoom. A zoom (like your kit…"
David Stutz replied to Nishant Mishra's discussion Why buy a 50mm prime if I have got an 18-55 mm standard kit lens?"This is a great question.

If you generally shoot party photo's or birthday shot's, they are ok. I would…"
Joseph Dwyer replied to Nishant Mishra's discussion Why buy a 50mm prime if I have got an 18-55 mm standard kit lens?"I also like the prime lenses for the fact that will make you have to move to get the shots you want. With a zoom lens you may find yourself getting the same angles because you just zoom in and out. The aperture would be the other big…"

Separated by a thick iron grill, these poor children were watching Republic Day celebration of our neighborhood from some distance. Some of them were obviously very curious and happy.
nathan mccreery replied to Nishant Mishra's discussion Why buy a 50mm prime if I have got an 18-55 mm standard kit lens?"You are right about the depth of field. If you chart the depth of field using a 50mm lens on a 1.6 crop camera, 35mm camera, Hasselblad 2 1/4 camera and 4x5 view camera DOF will be the same in each case provided the aperture number and image…"
damonweiss replied to Nishant Mishra's discussion Why buy a 50mm prime if I have got an 18-55 mm standard kit lens?"I am a relative novice at photography, but a 50mm prime is definitely the next lens I plan to purchase, I have done some research on my own, and much of what I have read echos what was said above, 50-mm prime lens are inexpensive relative to other…"
