I'm personally looking forward to having a small and light prime lens around the 30mm focal length to give a 50mm FF equivalent. I've been using the EF-S 24mm STM with my 100D for several months and have gotten good results. However, at times it just feels a little too wide.

The 40mm STM and 50mm STM are a little too narrow for the street photography that I like.

Hopefully, I won't have to wait too long. Do you all think Canon have such a lens in the pipeline anytime soon?

PS: I have used the Sigma 30mm f1.4 for a while but feel that it's too heavy and bulky. Also it's focus seems to be inconsistent.

The Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM has been very useful for me, some people like it, and some people don't but i've gotten some nice images with it - in low light as well as good light - and seeing as it still seems to be holding it's value there must be still something good about it. And it just looks right on the 70D and T4i - size & design - including with the hood.
