I paid $200 to charity and all I got was this stupid title... oh, and I'm probably out to sea right now too.

Looks like I will rent a 35mm prime from borrowlens then. Unless someone has one for Canon they will let me use for a couple days.

Someone probably does. I love my 35mm prime. If I upgrade to FF I'll have to dump it though and use my 50mm (which is just as good

)

I dont have a lot of money to spend on glass since I am in the middle of doing an STi swap into my outback but I want at least a decent lens to do photoshoots of car shows and outdoors.

Im thinking macro or fisheye? Ive tried reading up on them, but to be honest my brain starts to hurt after a while since there are SOOOOOO many different lens out there!

Two specialized lenses. Get one that does more. You can make your normal lens fish eye in post. If you are nto doing macro work no need for it.

For interior shots, you'll probably need wider than 35mm.

Someone on here is selling a Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 for Canon and that's a really good wide angle lens. I just don't know if your camera has a built in motor to autofocus it though.

I say go longer so you dont get distortion

28-135 is a good all around lens you can get for cheap.

Interesting. I have a 28-75 I think, and my 75-250 (i think) has been fuzzy since day one. Its always caused blurry shots when you zoom past a certain spot.
