[QUOTE="EORI, post: 569622, member: 43203"] No, it would not be a good general purpose lens, because 28mm is not wide enough on a crop camera like the 400D (a crop camera has a smaller sensor that causes images taken by it to have a narrower field of view than the traditional 35mm film cameras). This lens, an older design, was intended for film camera bodies, although it can be used on your 400D, and many amateur photographers use it in that combination. A comparable lens for a crop camera (from an image quality, zoom length, and feature standpoint) is the Canon EF 17~85IS: [URL]http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002Y5WXO/?tag=macforums0e4-20[/URL] [/QUOTE]
