Post by PeglegCan't afford the real high end lenses. Have Canon EF 28-135
IS zoom and Canon EF 70-300 IS USM and need a comparable
wide angle.
Thanks,

First of all the most important question left out is 'what kind of
camera is the lense going on'. EF-S mounts are different than the EF
mount. If the camera only takes the EF lens than the EF-S isn't the
lens to get. Without knowing the camera type and assuming you want a
lens that provides a relative good wide angle try the EF 24mm - 70mm
lens by Sigma. Otherwise invest in a wide angle lens only.
If the camera has a full 35mm sensor, the EF-S is out of the question.
Even if the lens fit on that camera you'll be looking through a
tunnel. I think it's called Vignette.
I'm using a Canon 5D Mark II upgrading from the Canon 5D and there's a
big difference between the two. I made that mistake of ordering a
lens made for smaller sensor cameras. Had to send it back.
