I have a Canon 350D, I was thinking of buying a Sigma 10-20 so I wanted to know what you thought about the Canon EF-S 10-22. There is quite a difference in price soo, but I've checked out the Sigma at flickr.com and asked a lot of the people in the groups there. But I still can't decide...

What do they say about the Sigma and Canon lenses?

Well they say that the Sigma 10-20 lens is a great lens actually but not as good as the Canon 10-22 lens. The Canon lens has better colors and it's really sharp. But I'm still a amateur photographer so maybe I should settle with the Sigma.

Haha, okay :) personally, I must say that the 10-22mm is really sharp. I got a magazine some days ago and it reviews many different wide-angle lenses. They reviewed the Canon 10-22mm and said that the sharpness was amazing. Also, the distortion of light near the ring was not serious at all and the lens was perfect for landscape shooting. ;)

I just got a tele-lens too, a cheap Canon one :giggle:

Alright, sounds great!
Ahh, I still can't decide on which wide-angle lens that I want. I'm still an amateur. I'm also thinking of buying a 50mm one for portrait shots.

I tried the 50mm f/1.2 lens, and it feels so different because I am so used to the zoom lens, while this one can't zoom at all (fixed). It is very cheap though ;) and it is perfect for portraits...

And finally last week I bought the tele-lens 55-200mm :giggle:

Haha, you are really buying a lot of new lenses =P. Well I just got my 50mm and I know what you mean, I'm also used to be able to zoom when ever it's needed. Do you have a flickr account or something like that or do I have to go to AW8.net every time I want to check out your photos?

You really have to go to aw8.net to check my photos, but I am renewing the photo section now since I am adding more and more there, and I will note you back when it is done with easier navigation :P
