What is it for? General photography?My 50mm 1.8 is not wide enough, stupid crop?
I'd definitely plug the EF 35 f/2 and the EF 28 f/1.8. Both great lenses and much more suitable focal lengths APS-C bodies.
The Sigma 30 f/1.4 is a good lens also but unlike the above Canon lenses, is not compatible with Full Frame and APS-H bodies (should you wish to further your photography into such formats).
If you ended up going for the Sigma, may be worth purchasing it locally and testing before you commit to buy. Even though it is predominatly interwebz hear say, the amount of users who claim to end up with duds is a little alarming. Better to be safe than sorry in either case.

There is a little internet hubbub about the sigma but often it is easily fixed by a calibration from the importer who I think have centers in Major Cities (Certainly Melb or Syd) or if your body has MA you would be able to dial in yourself.
Testing the Sigma would be priority. The 35 would be a nice length on the crop.

Was down at Mt Stromlo earlier this week for a few days riding, and ended up only taking the film camera along. Unfortunately, I was silly enough to forget that Ektachrome is slide film. So I shot three rolls (naturally), and had to cross-process all of them, as my camera store wasn't one of two in Sydney that can process slide film.
The colours are pretty damn violent, but I love the way the clouds and sky came out in this one.
And no, it wasn't taken with Hipstamatic, this is real cross-processing :tape:
Loving my 50mm f1.8. Still a newb all in all when it comes to cameras, but for a first time shooting riding I reckon I did alright! Favourite two shots.

The Razorback is such a great track Ango! I'll finish processing the rest of the photos in the next day or two and post up anymore I think are worthwhile, but here's one of the better landscapes of the ridge that I've processed so far.
