Some folks do not even consider a 28mm to be truely wide angle. I have always considered it to be a comprimise between a 24 and 35. Can't aford two lenses? Buy the 28. I feel the same way, though not as intensely, about the 100/105mm and the 85mm and 135mm.

Today my daughter came up with a last minute Christmas wish. She has a MZ5n
and M50/1.4 lens and has taken some pretty nice pictures with that. Now she
"kind of would like to have a wide angle lens". So, what's daddy going to
do .. shops are closing for the holidays in two hours or so .. well, I
might give her one of my beloved short primes, either the K24/2.8, which is
a little obsolete since I bought Joe's FA24/2, or the M28/2.8. Which one
would you consider more "educational", i.e. good for learning wide angle
photography. I almost would say the M28, because it's not so extreme, but
maybe I only think so because I like that K24 so much ,-)
Thanks and have nice holidays all of you!
