Hi everyone,
I am looking at a new lens and need some help, but first a little info.
I have a Canon EOS 40D with two lenses, a Sigma 10-20mm and a Canon 50mm f1.4 (which is pretty much welded to the body).
I am looking into getting a fast prime which is close to a 50mm EFL on my body and have been looking at the above.
The Canon 28mm is a bit pricey, the Sigma is cheap on fleabay but gets bad write ups due to back / front focussing issues and the 35mm is, well, is it too long on the 40D body.
Please throw me some advice, I need this lens for a project in October and am really struggling with what to go for.
I would say the winner in terms of price is the Sigma but these focussing issues, wow, are they really that bad or has QC improved?
