Apr. 8, 2008 - Wide Angle Lenses 2

I recently aquired a Canon 10-22mm wide angle lens and a new Canon 40D digital camera. The lens is equivalent to a 16-35mm lens on 35mm cameras. This lens is really, really wide. Here is a link to reasons why one should have a wide angle lens (wider than 28mm) for real estate photography.

Thanks.
