Hi and thanks for helping me.

I already have the 50mm f2 Fujinon. I am a photography student and I opted for the portrait, wich should I buy between 23mm f2 or 35mm f2, considering that I can only afford one.

Thank for the answers. Now it is clear to me not to go for the 35mm but now I doubt whether to take the 23mm f2 or the 27mm f2.8. Any suggestions?

Right now my favorite trio of lenses is the 50mm, 27mm, and the 16mm. I find it covers a wide focal length range without any of them being too close together. Depending on your needs for a wide lens in the future you might want to go that direction, I find the 23 too close to the 16 if bringing just three lenses. If you’re wanting to go wider than 16mm though, the 23mm might be fine for you.
