Canon EF 28mm f/2.8 AutoFocus Wide Angle

Used this for a few days to shoot some funky portraits and some wide angle for a wedding. The autofocus was super loud (it's not a USM lens so I'm not surprised) and a little slow. If you use it with a good camera, the images are actually pretty sharp. So, if you are on a budget, it's not a bad wide angle, although if you are shooting with an APS-C camera, than you probably should look for an EF-S lens to accomodate the crop factor to get a true wide angle. If you wanna have a backup 28, this is a good choice, otherwise save your money and get a nicer lens that is USM, IS, etc.
