Are you shooting with a FF or crop body?

I rented the 16-35 for my Alaskan cruise last month and got some greats results.

Good question as it makes all the difference in the world.
None of those primes will be wide enough on a crop.
If you are shooting FF then the 24mm is the one.


Bless the recently fallen and their family and friends.
I have a Cannon with me at all times. You can't take the shot if you don't have something with which to shoot. :rolleyes:
