I want the 28mm for wide angle group shots and the rest of the range for close action and general photos. Thanks for any thoughts you all can provide.......PhotoDude25

Oct 28, 2004 21:40 | #3 Thanks Scott, hmmm, neither lens seems to garner glowing review ratings, although the Canon seems to fare better in their tests than the Sigma. I better keep looking. Maybe I should take a peek at that Tamron 28-75mm everyone's been posting about.........PhotoDude25

If you want a 28mm equivalent, you need to be looking at lenses that start at 17/18mm. Graeme

? Some of Sigma's EX series lenses are great and some of Sigma's lenses are not so great.
