>>4443686No. don't be an autistic fag. If you're purely at the learning stage just get a zoom. The only thing I'd recommend a beginner buy a prime for is portraiture since you often want a fast aperture for that, which zooms are not (typically). When you graduate beyond the green auto mode you can always sell shit for 75%+ of what you paid and reassess what gear you want/need.
If you care, prime lenses are good because they're often small, light, inexpensive, and provide better image quality compared to zooms. But being locked into a single focal length is not the greatest, especially if you don't know what you want to take photos of.
>shop guy told me to get prime lens like a 50mm for starting out and learningshop guy might just want to make more sales ngl. On a crop camera a 50mm f/2 prime can be a good portrait lens but that's assuming you want to do that.
