Hi All,
I have a lens dilemma which I'm trying to justify. Currently my lens line up consists of the Nikon 35mm 1.4G, 58mm 1.4G, 85mm 1.4G and 70 - 200 vrii, which I mostly use for weddings. I'm generally happy with all of them but not against the idea of swapping out a lens here and there if the opportunity arises. The option of buying a mint copy of the 28mm 1.4E at a really good price (£925, around half the cost of a new lens in the UK), has come up. If I go for it, i expect i would sell the 35mm as they are pretty similar in focal length. The 28mm would offer a slightly wider option for group photos, getting ready shots in cramped environments etc, and is meant to be stellar in terms of optics and performance. Then again I do love the character of the 35mm and I know that sharpness is not everything.
Any opinions / advice from those who have experienced both would be much appreciated
Cheers.
