Re: 50mm f1.4 not wide enough on 60D, ideas??

Do a search on this forum, this is an age old question which many of us have had to deal with. My answer (not necessarily the best and certainly not the only one) was to get the 35mm f2; there's also a newer IS version which is apparently very nice but I think costs more than $500. I'm thinking of complementing both the 50mm f1.4 and 35mm f2 with the new ef-s 24mm f2.8. If you'd prefer a single length for all this range then a 17-55 or 17-50 might make sense. Good luck!
