yeah the 1D mkIIn is priced almost similar with 7D
do you still have EF-s lens?
but then 1.3 crop wont it feels weird?
then there's still no UWA for 1.3 crop tongue.gif

1.6 crop has a few lenses to cater for it ma
for normal range there's 18-55, 17-55....
for UWA there's 10-22 as well

for 1.3 crop normal range use 24-70?
which is 31-91 equivalent. not really wide enough
for UWA 16-35 is 21-45 equivalent.
not wide enough as well.
guess only way is Sigma 12-24.
but guess ppl dont use 1.3 crop for landscape and architectural shots.

What do you guys think of the EF 35mm f/2 as a low light street/indoor lens? Thinking of getting that over the 50mm f/1.8.

@sniper, at 1st i wanted to get the 35 f2 as my low light prime. But new is bout 1k. So rather save bit more for sigma 30 f1.4

@busyman. The 450d with 18-200 is worth it.
Street price of the lens is almost 2k
Means the camera is only few goreng pisang only biggrin.gif

@cvr_kx3, the 580 EXII is about 1.6k~1.7k?
pair it with the external battery pack and you can flash till the flash head burnt/melt whichever comes 1st tongue.gif

@twL, better save your money and get a proper wide angle lens.
Those converters have very bad IQ and just a little bit wider.
Wont give you what you want.

the wide angle lens need at least RM3000 to get one,
i don know how long i can save it,
anyway,
thank you for your comment before i go for it,
i thought it will have big wider than normal lens. smile.gif

Obviously you have been looking at wrong place!
New one is about 1.9k? or so.
if you dont mind buying used then maybe can get for 1.5k or less.

since you want to do funny shots then can get fisheye
Samyang manual focus is bout 1.3k?

all these will give you way better result than a converter
though you can argue that converter is only 10% of the price wink.gif

@twL
azrin has posted a few nice third party lens
there's also Tokina 12-24 F4 going for 2k online price.

But street price will be a little bit lower if you know where to shop la.
