Hi all, I have a question. This month I intend to buy myself a new lens for my 1000D. I have been using a 50mm 1.8 for about a year now I guess, but have been finding it has not been wide enough on several occasions. I would like to buy something wider, and wondered if anyone had any first hand experience using either:
a) Canon EF 35mm f/2
b) Canon EF 28mm f2.8
I enjoyed using the 50mm as it meant I had something that I could use when the light wasn't too good, I'm not really photographing anything in particular, both people and scenery, indoors and out. This purchase will most likely become my main 'walkabout' lens and whilst I appreciate that both of these are low end, I don't have lots of cash at the moment and really I'd just want something that has the same sort of IQ as the 50mm. I've read reviews of both and they seem pretty similar in terms of build quality and picture sharpness, but it would be nice to have some first hand knowledge. Any other suggestions would be welcome.
