That's nice, but they need to start putting some faster primes on the market. 
There isn't much 
advantage in buying a 35mm f/2.8 lens when the 16-50 is also an f/2.8, unless 
all you are going 
to do with the 35mm lens is macro work at closer ranges than the 16-50 will 
allow. I would 
really like a fast standard prime, something like a 30-35mm f/1.4.
