How much do you want to spend ?

I have the 10-22 zoom wide lens and works very well with my 20D. When you are at 10mm, the photo gets distorted at the top corners. Kinda like a slight fish-eye effect. <BR> <BR>This lens is the "EF-S" version which means it will only work on the 20D and rebel series. So, if you plan to go Full Frame, like 5D, it will not fit. <BR> <BR>But overall, this lens is superb, sharp pictures, great wide coverage and light. <BR> <BR>Read the review of this lens at <BR><a href="http://www.fredmiranda.com/reviews/showproduct.php?product=221&sort=7&cat=27& amp;page=3" target="_blank">http://www.fredmiranda.com/reviews/showproduct.php?product=221&sort=7&cat=27& amp;page=3</a>

Check out the Canon 10-22 and the Sigma 12-24.

i would recommend the 17-40L, its an incredible lense and has gotten very high ratings. check <a href="http://www.fredmiranda.com" target="_blank">www.fredmiranda.com</a> for good reviews and ratings of all lenses

Thanks for all the input I will look at those sources. <BR>Dennis

I use the Canon 10-22mm <BR> <BR>Here are some shots from yesterday out on Lake Medina. Rider is Ian Udell <BR> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87667/390779.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87667/390780.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR><img src="http://www.wakeworld.com/MB/Discus/messages/87667/390781.jpg" alt="Upload"> <BR> <BR>Note Sunset shots are shot on ISO 800, handheld... and the camera was still in the water housing, so I think it came out pretty good all things considered! LOL

The Canon EF 16-35 f/2.8L USM is a great lens too.
|
Anyone have a Tamron 11 - 18.
|
i just looked through my 17-40L on a full frame camera, all i have to say is WOW, i had no idea how wide angle it was when not on a 1.4crop camera body. i love this lense even more now!
|
yep. 1.6x crop bodies really cut a lot out of wide angles...Hell, even going from 1.6x to 1.3x was a huge difference.
|
i have a 17-40 on a 30d... i wish i could get more... <BR> <BR>has anyone tried the tamron 11-18 or have any other suggestions ?
|
Awesome sunset pics, Swami!
|
oops, ya i meant 1.6, not 1.4. <BR> <BR>is the 30d a 1.3?
|
Nope, <BR> <BR>All D Rebels, 10D, 20D, and 30D are 1.6 <BR>1D MkII, 1DMkIIN are 1.3 <BR>1Ds, 1Ds MkII and 5D are full frame
