Should I get a Canon eos 7d with a standard lens or an T2I with a wide angle lens, my budget is $1750?

If you had a Nikon and wanted to later buy a full frame camera, then the Nikkor 14-24 mm would be the best choice, but so far, Canon has yet to provide their 5D and 1D camera users such a nice wide angle lens. The widest for a full frame Canon would be the Canon EF 16-35mm f/2.8.

I have 3. The Samyang 14f2.8, the Canon 15f2.8 fisheye and the Canon 16-35f2.8L II. Canon also produce the 14f2.8L II and the 17-40f4L.

Out of my 3 the 16-35 is the most versatile and really comes into its own on the 5DM2 but I wouldn't recommend it on the crop, nor the fisheye. Surprisingly the Samyang gets good ratings on APS-C sensored DSLRs. It is excellent value for the price.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
