I tried several lenses to photograph this scene: a 28-80mm cheap zoom, mainly at the telephoto end; a 50mm; a 35mm with image stabilisation and close-focus capability; and an old 55mm macro. I thought the 35mm had the best chance of getting the picture, but in the end it was the 50mm. When I started out in photography it was with a 50mm (well, a 58mm to be exact). On all subsequent cameras I first got a 50mm until eventually digital claimed me and I bought a Nikon D60 with an 18-55mm kit lens. But I soon added a 50mm equivalent to take some proper pictures.

Tamron SP 35mm f/1.8 lens.

You can focus very close with the Tamron 35mm f/1.8 lens, and it has image stabilisation as well. The clarity is generally good. But it is a biggish lens in comparison to old 35mm Nikkor lenses and heavier to carry. If it was the only lens you carried you'd scarcely care, but as part of a collection in a gadget bag you might examine how much you used this lens in comparison to others. Footnote: Having looked afresh at other photographs I have made using this lens, I think it deserves to be employed much more often. If you would also like to see those pictures, they are in my album - listed at the top of "See also..." to the right-hand side of this page.
