Totally agree with u!

another thing is the 18-55 rotates during AF so you need to keep twisting the CPL to get the effect you want after AF confirmed

wow...nvr try CPL filter b4...
seems like vry fun

Anybody tried the cheapo 30mm f/2.0 before? Or the 28mm? Something like that right?

Can't afford Siggy 30mm f/1.4 or Sigmalux 50mm f/1.4 la.

fruitie..got such stuff?
nvr heard b4 leh...cheapo as in how muc?

im interested in prime 28mm ,as cheap as possible, saving for it now... maybe a canon 28mm f1.8 or 2.8.... hope price will drop next year...

Grab Sigma 30 f/1.4 laa

tower..not so sharp thou

Sigma 30mm 1.4 and canon 28mm 1.8 are almost the same price. i oso had this dilemma a few months ago - which to buy?

In the end I went with canon 28mm bcos it is an EF lens, so it can be put on full frame body, unlike the siggy, which is for crop body only.

Reason to get this range:
not as tight as the 50mm when using crop body.
Depth of field is wider, so when taking group shots at f1.8, not that many people are out of focus.
Can be used as a walkabout lens?
When paired with one of the xxxD cameras, it is actually quite small - can stuff into almost any bag you carry.

as for the loss of 1/3 stop of light (compared to the siggy), i thought to myself - "newer bodies can push very high ISO oledi", plus if it really becomes so dark until i need that tiny bit extra f-stop, i might as well use my flash

Oh. I also have Hong Kong photos. But I combined them in a gif file. =)

wth so nice
