Ok so I need a wide angle lens for a 20d this summer but I am poor is there any good ones on the market for 300 or so or am I plum retarded for even asking that? I have been doing a little reading and it seems that most of the lenses I have been looking at are not sharp enough. Is this because its not "L" ? Any help would begreat!!

aslo I almost bought an 18-55 by canon for about 95.00 but then I read the reviews and seen images taken and it seems to be soft and has a lot of the "digital purple fringe" compared to the other lenses.

You can't beat the kit 18-55 lens for the $ if you need a WA on a crop body. It's actually fairly good stopped down. There's no shame in getting it and trying to get the most out of it as well as learning a lot along the way. FWIW, If you can spend $400, there is the superb Sigma 18-50EX f2.8.
