Decided to get into photography a bit more. Always had "point & shoot" cameras which take good pictures but would now like a bit more "manual" input. As a starter DSLR camera I decided to get a Nikon D3200. I have a Nikon18-55mm which came with the camera, and I purchased a Nikon 18-140mm.
A friend suggested that I should get a prime lens and that the Nikon 35mm f1.8G would be a great choice.
What do you think? What is the benefits of this size lens, and should I go with his recommendation, or is there a better choice to be made? I want to be in the position of only needing to carry two lenses with me at any time. My friend once told me, " if you have to carry too much gear you'll soon loose interest in it".
Please excuse my ignorance in all this as I'm very new to it.
