		ISL on Oct 31, 2022 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Classic 50mm “Normal” Lens My comment was based on full-frame equivalence :). 50mm on an APS-C is short-telephoto; frequently pleasing for portraits, but less-useful as a single prime. (I still recommend 50mm f/1.8s as a second or third lens for people using APS-C, but not as an only-lens.)

Thank you for the clarification! I've been happy with my 35mm lens (50mm equivalent) largely because it cost about $200.
