damn that weight room looks nice. my old high schools (notre dame) weight room was like a closet, but i think they built a new one.
and back on topic, whats a good wide angle lens for a tight budget?

depend on what camera you have - best suggestion
sigma 10-20mm
if you can afford it then look for the
tokina 11-16mm
canon 10-22mm
sigma 10-20mm

haha, my school's isn't anything to rave about.
i took those pics on a Tokina 11-16 f/2.8 and thats like 600 bucks. the cheapest decent one would be like a sigma 10-22 for around $420-$450

^^ You should tell your homey on the back to put his shirt back on - just because he is on a weight room does not mean he is buff.

IMO Fisheye adapters suck. I know they're really cheap, but the effect isnt just the same. And sometimes some of the pictures that are taken come outreally small due to the circle outline of the adapter.

what does everyone think about the canon 17-40?

Oh, I'm well aware of that. I took that into account, but since it was an old lady, I made the gamble anyways. Thanks for the heads up though.Most of the time, especially in poorer neighborhoods, I'm very well received. Dunno why
And most of those shots were taking with the 85mm f/1.8, yo. That kind of bokeh and performance on the 70-200f4/L would be impossible
BTW, whoever asked about the 17-40...GO FOR IT. Don't look back. Probably one of the most robust, bang for your buck lenses out there. Ultra fast focus,great walk around capabilities, ultra wide (on ff). Oh, and the quality and reliability of Canon's L line.

The effect you get is pretty much the same that is shown with the Lomo fisheye. So if you don't want to use film to have that effect, then $40 might beworth it.
On that same note, I am sure people have seen this but anyone see that homemade fisheye using a peep hole insert? I wish I knew about this just when I had apoint and shoot for fun.
And check out this dope air force photo over SF:

Thanks for the info! I was also curious about the 14-40 f/4L as a walkaround, but I sort of felt as if the f/4 was a bit too slow, especially since itdoesn't have IS. Is my concern justified?
Right now I'm shooting with the XSI, the 18-55 IS kit lens and the 50mm f/1.8. After shooting with the 50, the sharpness and speed has absolutely blownme away. Now, I know I won't get such wide apertures with zoom lenses (without spending the big $$$$ at least
So my dilemma is as such: get the 28-135 and keep the 18-55 for wide purposes OR sell the 18-55 for whatever I can get (peanuts), and get the 17-40 f/4L asa walkaround? Image quality is important to me. It was like the heavens cleared once I started shooting with the nifty fifty.(Granted, I know I could also buythe 17-55 f/2.8 EFS or 24-70 f/2.8L, but right now the cash flow just aint there
BTW awesome pics everyone, I'll have some posted up soon

it should be ok...are you shooting in doors? outdoors? long exposures?
I have the 50mm f/1.8 and its a great lens even at night. If you are getting the nifty-fifty try looking for the new version of with the built in AF-S motorand will autofocus with your D60. do you have a tripod? if you dont, try investing in one. it will be really useful when you shoot at night.
