Give up now, by buying a 300D you surrendered yourself to the fact that you can't have wide angle. Sorry, it's sad but true.

The lesser known fact about the 300d (and 10d, etc etc) is that the light sensor isn't 35mm but a ratio of 35mm so there's a multiplication factor on there.

So when you spend the $1400 (thats AU for me) on a nice 15mm fish eye or 1600 on a 17-40 (now THATS a nice lens) you'll end up with a 24 mm and a 27.2- 64 mm lens.

Damn, hey? That's the exact reason I went back to film.
