以基本的器材去提昇技術

Please comment on Canon EOS 1500D pairing with EF 35mm f/2 IS USM and EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM while I rarely take video and fast-moving objects.

For your Canon EOS 1500D, the EF 35mm f/2 IS USM is the stronger choice if you mostly shoot still photos and care about image quality, while the EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM is the more flexible all-in-one lens. Since you rarely shoot video or fast action, I’d lean toward the 35mm prime as the more satisfying “main lens,” with the 18-135mm only if you want convenience over optical depth.

How they fit your use

EF 35mm f/2 IS USM: On APS-C, it behaves like about a 56mm equivalent, which is great for everyday shots, portraits, food, indoor scenes, and general street photography. Its wider f/2 aperture gives you better low-light performance and blurrier backgrounds than the zoom.

EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM: This is the better travel/everything lens, because it covers wide to short telephoto and has fast, quiet autofocus plus stabilization. Reviews describe it as versatile and quick for stills, but image quality is more “good enough” than exceptional, especially wide open.

For your shooting style

Because you said you rarely take video and fast-moving objects, the 18-135mm’s main advantages matter less. The Nano USM and motorized-zoom compatibility are especially useful for smooth, quiet video operation. The lens is quick enough for action, but that advantage is mainly relevant when subjects are moving rapidly. If you mostly shoot static or slower subjects, you won’t exploit that speed much.

The 35mm prime will usually give you more pleasing images, better subject separation, and a more compact setup for everyday use.

Practical recommendation

Pick EF 35mm f/2 IS USM if you want one lens for daily still photography and are happy to “zoom with your feet.”

Pick EF-S 18-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM if you want one lens to cover many situations without changing lenses.

Best overall setup for your use: keep the 18-135mm for convenience, and add the 35mm f/2 for better-quality indoor/night portraits and general photography.
