Lol I'm glad to see people enjoying the 30mm. However the problem now is I've heard of people saying that the 30mm on a crop-censor (500D) may be a little big too "close". So I'm now considering getting the canon 28mm f/1.8 instead, thoughts?

It's equivalent to 48mm.. the Canon 28mm ( 44mm eq) is less sharp and 2/3 of a stop slower and for about the same price (in my region at least).

ps: i think you're confused about crop factor.. all dslr lens are specified in 35mm equavalent. Read up more here for instance http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/crop-factor.htm

seems like most used wide to shoot street eh?

Nice wat.. big view, big dof... works well close up.

the only wide lens i got is a 25mm, but at F4 which im not really good at, not used to wide either

U have a NEX also right? Just play play with the 16mm lo. The lens is cheap wat.

Spam spam.. random photos of strangers.

Service with a smile

bro, no more NEX already, gone

Bro read it, good link is good. Thanks for the reference, I think I'll go for the Sigma 30mm nao

Thanks albnok. Speaking of lines reminds me of the lines shot you taught when we outside of MV KTM station.

I feel that wide (24 or 32) lens is very nice, u can go wide, and u can go close up. As oppose using 50mm or more is tighter and not so nice if want to get alot of people in 1 frame

zicron.. now im really contemplating... am i suppose to bring all my lenses for a holiday????
i always tot the 25mm is more of a lnadscape lens

i am talking about effective focal length which i think 2 lens is enough which is 35mm and 50mm....
unless you want some UWA shots lah...

well, 24 on crop sensor is 35 ma.

mine is fullframe bang....

elmarit 28mm 2.8 seems good...

riggo, u got tat? tomolo flying off liao... i think i will just bring 2 50mms and a 85mm
heard its raining there in bkk, hide one corner with umbrella and take raining shots

why wanna bring 2 50mm lens?

im brinigng 2 bodies, and im so used to 50mm

Just bring one lens one body la. you will end up taking more photos. Why ?

One lens one body means lighter. You can walk and explore more. Additional weight of body can be used for carrying a bottle of mineral water.

No time wasting debating what body to snap this pic or dat pic.

No shots missed because of changing lens.

If thai mat rempit grab your bag, you loose only one camera one lens instead of everything.

p/s - if you still decide to bring two bodies, leave one in the hotel la.

thanks hiro
in fact, im actually bringing 3 bodies, but one will be kept at the hotel
and 2 on the go
and the lens will be on fixture, so depending on which lens, then will use which camera to take
