Re: 23mm f/2 vs 35mm f/2

I have been contemplating the same thing recently. I decided to stick with the 18-55mm lens for now because I have come to love it. It's so versatile for all the different types of photography I've experimented in so far and the zoom is just so incredibly helpful. I don't have a particularly strong need for either prime and if I get it, it would definitely because I simply want it. After taking a street photography workshop in which I took photos of people on the streets, I was surprised to find that I was most comfortable with the 23mm focal length because it gave me more room to crop and edit the photos in case I didn't quite frame the photo right. The 35mm lens was too narrow for me. Just my two cents.
