Hi.

Please kindly explore 18-55 further. It gives you four primes: 18, 23, 35, 55.

I get the point of what you are saying, but if you are going to call it (4) prime lenses, you have to ask yourself whether you would buy a 55mm f4 prime lens (the size of the 18-55) on an APS-C sensor. Most people would say....no thanks.

I think the OP should get the 18-55, but use the additional funds that would go towards the 16-55 to get something like the the 35mm f1.4. That way they can have a little bit of both worlds.
