Re: Why does the "crop sensor" part matter?

Seems an EF-S 24mm pancake is coming for real (leaked details+pic): http://www.canonrumors.com/2014/09/the-new-canon-ef-s-24mm-f2-8-stm-pancake/.

I'm with you on the 40mm: the size makes it the perfect walkaround lens, but it's just too close for most shots I want when walking around. I just got a 10-22mm so I could get wider shots ... and now am going to be sorely tempted by that 24mm pancake for another thin lens.

Wow, 16cm close focus too. If it's as sharp as the 40mm the SL1 just became a lot more interesting!
