Hi everyone! I guess the title says it all but here's the background.
New to photography and have a Nikon D80 with a Tamron 70-300mm lens. Enjoying using that for photographing birds (including the occasional appearance of a common pheasant!) in the garden, but need something to mess around with indoors.
I've been looking at the 18-55mm, 35mm and 50mm and can't decide which to go for. I don't want to spend too much on lenses as a) I don't want to spend loads and find the initial enjoyment/excitement begins to wane and b) the D80 is fairly old so if it goes belly up then I haven't spent loads and am tied into Nikon (not that there's anythiong wrong with that), therefore allowing me to choose more freely what to get next.
I'm not really into portrait photography, but I have to admit, I'm loving taking non-stop photo's of the kids (and the missus) pretending to be a 'real' photographer. The kids don't mind but the missus isn't overly happy anbout it
.
Any advice on which would be the best to get would be appreciated.
Thanks
Sadiq
Oh, PS - I have seen some 50mm AIS lenses on ebay - would these fit and auto focus?
