Hello!
I need some fatherly advice for buying a new wide-angle lens for scenery and casual shots after changing to digital. My 50/1.4 was often a 'bit too long' and after changing to the EOS 20D it's 'always too long' by the 1.6x focal length multiplication.
Thought, I should buy the 20/2.8 USM, but the reviews about it are very poor ('not worth the money' ...). The 24/2.8 is much cheaper and has very good reviews.
Zoom lenses don't have the picture quality I try to achieve and the new S lenses have also bad reviews.
A 28 will too long and the 14/2.8 L is too (L)uxury (better spend my money for long lenses .
Hope for your advice!
