I very much agree with this article. As someone relatively new to photography (less than four years), prime lenses have allowed me better quality for less money with a wider variation of lenses/applications. 20mm for architecture and interiors; 50mm for street or environmental portraits; 85mm for beautiful rather close-up portraits; 105mm macro for product shots and mid-range portraits.
