Are we talking about 'walk about travel lenses' here? You guys must be a lot
richer than I am because no way I'd take an expensive lens travelling. I still
say the EF 28-135 IS is the best bang for the buck in a travel lens.

Unfortunately there is no cheap really wide angle for the small sensor cameras,
but I have had good luck stitching multiple photos in those instances when I
just had to have a wider view. Sure saves lugging along another lens, not to
mention buying one.

As well, I don't really like extreme wide angle lenses for vacation photos. Sure
you get more into the photo, but everything in the frame is just so damned
small. Especially anything at a distance.
