Wide-Angle Photography

Wide-angle lenses are those lenses that have a shorter focal length than normal lenses. In terms of 35mm film equivalents, common wide angle focal lengths include 35mm, 28mm, 24mm, 21mm, 18mm, and 14mm. Fisheye lenses are also common in the ultra-wide range.

Wide-angle photography has many charms. As photographers, it brings us in closer and challenges us to be creative. For an introduction to wide-angle photography, I recommend looking here.

Can someone give me advice on buying a wide angle? I have a Canon digital rebel xt(im just starting out) and want to get a decent wide angle for it. Advice, thoughts would be great.

This group is such a good idea, makes me wanna go shoot more wide angle stuff right now. I shot this photograph the other day for my friend, Clayton, skateboarding in Mauritius. It was shot at sunset with a bunch of flash lights, to make a scene, and my trusty Nikon 10.5mm fisheye. This would work out to around 16mm when using film. Hope someone likes it.
