Hi guys,
Which lens for a 1.6 crop would you prefer in terms of standard/normal-view/portrait lens? I've read a lot of reviews on both and so I like both. The question is, when compared to each other, which one would you actually get?
Canon 35mm f/2 (~200USD)
Canon 28mm f/1.8 USM (~400USD)
I am looking for good quality focus/sharpness, but what is more important to me is the quality of the blur that the large aperture provides, and how much of it I can have while still keeping the main object in relatively sharp focus. Considering this, I really don't care how these lenses perform at f/8 or f/11 or whatever. I care how they perform in regards to each other at f/1.8 , f/2 , and so on.
Thank you in advance!
