After seeing images made with the 18 f1.8 lens and again looking up the prices, I decided that this would be a good lens for portraits. It gives you an equivalent focal length of approximately 50mm on a full frame camera. Not my favourite focal length as I prefer the 80-135 range and sometimes even longer than that, but that's all there is at the time of this post.
Images from this lens are very good indeed. They should make more lenses of this calibre in my opinion but I assume that people who use this system will prefer zooms. Presently this lens will cost you €160 which is amazing price for lens like this.
Nikon have also introduced the 11-27.5 f3.5-5.6 lens which I can't really understand since it's very close to the 10-30 f3.5-5.6 lens. There may be advantages to the lens but right now, I just don't see it. That is one lens the I won't be purchasing.
