Re: The 17mm

Posted by Rich Brkich on March 25, 2001 at 00:39:20:
If I understand the term correctly, yes the 17mm is rectlinear. At the time (this is going back probably 20 years), this was the widest angle you could get before going fisheye.... Anyway, the 17 is a very cool lens to play and shoot pictures with...
P.S. Don't ask me anything about what cannon is offering these days... you need to keep in mind that the lenses and cameras I am familiar with are from the days before auto-everything, multi spot metering, motor drive cameras that are around these days of which I don't have a clue about (I'm not sure whether a simley or sad emotocon should go here!)
