Jenny...I am not a photographer except a nut who takes a zillion pictures of my kids. :) I thought it would be fun, though, to experiment with different lenses. Now I get to!
I'm in LOVE with my 50mm even though it took me a few long months to figure it out. Since it's a fixed focal length (and a slight zoom) I had to start stepping away from the subject - never had to do that with the kit lens. But this improved my photography dramatically. And that f/1.8 is perfect for indoors.
Good luck with experimenting and have fun with it!!
