After much research, I am looking to purchase my first DSL camera, a Nikon D5100. Since I plan to take 80%-90% of my pictures indoors, I thought it might be more cost effective to purchase the camera body with a much better indoor / low light lense listed in the title above instead of getting the camera with the standard 18-55mm lense kit. Is it possible to use this 35mm f/1.8 lense outdoors to get some adequate looking pictures in sunlight? I would prefer buying the better indoor / low light lense for better indoor quality pictures and use it as my only lense, as long as I can get some adequate looking pictures outside for the small percentage of outdoor shots that I would take. Do you think this is possible? Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

After much research, I have decided to purchase the D5100 body as my first DSL camera but am not sure what lense to buy. I will mostly be taking indoor shots but would like a little longer zoom capability for some outdoor pictures than the standard Nikon 18-55mm lense allows. I have been using a point-and-shoot camera that has a zoom of up to around 100/110mm which has been more than sufficient. Less zoom than this would be ok as well. Since my budget is limited, I thought it might be more cost effective to just buy the D5100 body and then buy a different (and possibly better quality) multipurpose lense with a slightly better zoom range which I would then use as my one and only permanent all purpose lense. Could anyone please give me some recommendations for a good quality lense? I really don't have any experience with this and am looking to keep this camera and lense combination as my only permanent camera for a long time to come.

Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!
