I have a Canon T1i 58mm and want a wide angle lens, does anyone have any for sale or know of which lens is best? suggestions im a Noob.

 

There is a good variety of wide angle lenses. What range are you looking for?

(Example: 10-22mm, 16-35mm, 17-40mm)

 

to tell you the truth i dont know, im new at this whole lens thing, i want the fisheye look for normal picture taking i guess is all i can explain, maybe 16-35mm? i need to look at the differences in the photos for each one i guess.

 

58mm? What? Maybe learn a little more. Then get into really wide angle stuff. Cause more than likely, you will be getting some interesting results with the wide angle cause it does take practice to learn how to use it due to how wide they can get and you can seriously make shots look horrible, very quickly. You have to learn how to stand and angle yourself properly to make a really wide angle lens work for each picture.

Majority of the time though, look at Sigma 10-20's, Tokina and Tamron have decent ones, but they will all get up in the near $600 range lately for the newer models.

Just go to ww.bhphotovideo.com and search sigma/tamron/tokina wide angle...

 

i have a feeling that hes talking abouth the threading on the end of the lens. like for filters and shit cause im pretty sure the kit lens from cannon is 58mm thread and my kit lens is 52mm (nikon)

they make those cheap ones that fit onto the end of your lens. like $40 on ebay.

 

yeah i apologize, your correct, but i thought that was what size my camera took, not looking for a filter but an actual lens and Thanks Michael, i will check those out i need to read some more. Ive had a Point and Shoot all my life. I love my new Canon and am trying to read threads and books to understand all its features. So do all lenses work with each other? like nikon on canon and so on? or is there a type or size that they specifically take?

 

obv get a canon specific lens, cause it only works with canon

no if you look at the end of the lens theres a threaded part where you can screw on filters and such and there are cheap fish-eye and wid angle adapters you can buy so i figured thats what you were asking about. and from what i understand, those suck.

but nikon and canon lens are not the same so you would have to get one that was made for a canon.

 

are you really spelling canon, cannon? lol

 

sorry i own i nikkon

and dont really cae enough to check. so screew yoouu
