Hello,

I'm excited that I'm getting back into photography after a hiatus. I'm kind of a newbie. I'm going to be purchasing the new Fujifilm X-T30 with the XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 lens. However, I've realized that many sellers are offering a bundle with this lens and either the XF 35mm F/2 or the XF 23mm F/2. The 35mm is bundled for an additional $100, and the 23mm is bundled for an additional $150. So--my question is this: Given that I'll have the 18-55mm lens, which one would you recommend getting?
My uses will include travel (upcoming trip to Israel!), taking pictures of my kids, and other general use shooting. Thanks in advance for your help! Any other suggestions to a Fuji newb would be appreciated!

Got the xf1855mm and love it but I prefer the XF23mm for portraits, sunrise and sunsets. It would be my desert island lens. Small but amazing. Perfect travel lens

Sunset XF23mm

Mountain sunrise XF23mm

Portrait XF23mm
