Great lens

Yes I agree, and a lot of companies make good ones. Sigma in particular make a beaut.

My Canon is great...would like to have a wider one, say...28mm. Can't afford the wide zoom, but how do you rate Sigma in the 28mm or even 35mm primes? My wallet is small, unfortunately! Would value your opinion!
What you are is so loud, I can't hear a word you say!

I still like my AF Nikkor 50mm 1.4 (Non D), and Crystal is 100% right .... when you nail a shot with your 50, It'll be awesome!
It is what it is.
However, if you're on a budget, the 50mm f1.8 II is always a must for all photographers!
