    Depends on what you shoot... both are pretty nice focal lengths...

    Do you currently have the 18-55? if so, zoom to 35, zoom to 50 and see what view you like....

    get the 50mm if you like blown out backgrounds and headshots or head-and-shoulders or detail images.

    get the 35mm if you want to shoot more "normal view' images but you can still get bokeh backgrounds if you're close, but closer than the 50mm....

    I'd go for the 50mm..... and if you don't like it, you can sell it for what you paid....
