Thinking about buying this lens to go on my Nikon D40 and selling the 18-55mm kit lens to partly pay for it. Does this seem like a good idea? Is the 35mm focal length wide enough to be a good walkabout lens on a DX camera?
My main interest is in low light handheld city stuff at night and landscapes. The kit lens doesnt' really have a large enough aperture for night stuff - maximum f3.5. I may end up buying some ultrawide zoom down the line for landscapes - possibly sigma 10-20mm.....
All the reviews I have read so far seem to indicate it's a good lens - especially in this price range - but is it really a better option than the kit lens overall? What do you guys think?
