Folks, need your help.
I have both of the following: Canon 1DMk2N (1.3x crop) + 30D (1.6 x crop).
I have shot a few weddings using my 24-70 f2.8L and 50mm f1.4.
Have 2 weddings coming up shortly and want to try something a bit different by going wider and using very shallow DOF.
So far, I have narrowed the search down to the Canon 24mm f1.4L and Sigma 30mm f1.4EX. However, the sigma is really designed for 1.6x crop DSLR's like the 30D and my first choice body is the 1DMk2N with the 30D as spare. (I find images are significantly better from the 1DMk2N)
30D + 30mm x 1.6 = 48mm equivalent - not really wide!
1DMk2 + 30mm x 1.3 = 39mm equivalent - a bit better but vignetting likely.
30D + 24mm x 1.6 = 38mm equivalent - no vignetting but inferior body.
1DMk2 + 24mm x 1.3 = 31mm equivalent - better but lens is £919!!
The Sigma gets good reviews and is excellent value for money at £270ish.
I did consider the Canon 16-35 f2.8L but f2.8 is not wide enough for what i want to do and is also expensive.
See my problem! Can anyone out there help me make my mind up?
Chris
