Prime Lens

I’ve been thinking about buying a new lens for my Canon XTi. After reading about lens and thinking about what I want, I’ve decided to go with a prime lens. A prime lens has no zoom, so you have to move more to frame the shot you want. They also produce better clarity than a zoom lens.

There is one that is relatively inexpensive - or at least compared to other lenses - on Amazon. It’s a 50mm and sells for about 80 dollars. I’m anxious to try it even though I’ve become to rely heavily on the zoom feature. This will be a good exercise in framing a shot and thinking about it before pressing the shutter button.
