Ok... So I want to buy this lens right? But then when I go to check it out in detail it says Note, not for APS censor like 20d. Well do they make this lens for the 20d?? If so can someone point me in the right direction.

Note: Equivalent focal length in 35mm terms when used on a digital camera is 18-36mm. That is what they all say.. I mean it will still work but not as wide or something IDN The 20D is an APS-C sensor...not a full sized APS. Did you lose Digital Photo Professional (DPP)? Get it here

Yeah it'll work. The difference is the size of the sensor. APS-C cameras have smaller sensors than full frame APS ones when compared to standard 35mm film SLRs. Rebels (300Ds), Rebel XTs (350Ds), 20Ds, and 30Ds will work. Any film camera or 5D or 1D series camera will not work. Did you lose Digital Photo Professional (DPP)? Get it here

If you had one of the big money cameras you could get the 16-35mm f/2.8 for similiar width but throw that lens on a 20D and you aren't as wide. Did you lose Digital Photo Professional (DPP)?

Yea its not an L but certainly not the quality on the Kit lens. IQ wise its as good if not better than some of the Canon L zooms. Focus is fast and quiet with the USM too.

I don't doubt that and that's what I'm saying. I wouldn't use it enough to justify Canon's price for their version unless it came down to that of the Toki. I did feel the need for more than 18mm at Disney though. Did you lose Digital Photo Professional (DPP)? Get it here

Here is a shot I took with it in Sydney (the conversion is not at highest quality, but you'll get the idea.) dmstraton
