Then, let's suppose I have a regular zoom lens, and I take a picture with it, focal length set to 35mm, aperture around 5.6, speed at 1/60. (it was a cloudy day :-) Then, let's suppose I have a fixed lens, that has a (fixed) focal length of 35 mm and a fixed aperture of 2.0 (that's a better quality lens). I take the same picture as the first one but now, because the aperture is bigger (2.0 compared to 5.6), I compensate it with a higher speed. Theoretically, both photos had the same amount of light. My question is: how much difference will it make in the quality of the final picture, the quality of the image? Is there some site that has pictures showing the same shots taken with regular, cheap lenses and with more expensive pro ones, so I can decide if it's worth spending money to buy better lenses?
