    My 20D loves the Sigma 20mm f/1.8

    I have used this lens almost exclusively since I got it. I find that its sharpness is more than acceptable at all f-stops, all of the respective apertures have their creative uses.

    I snapped a pic of my domke f-2 that was about 6" in front of me. The depth of field, DOF, is very thin, razor thin, actually.
    I really like it and find that I can experiment with it and achieve postive results.



    If you have some shots with fast lenses that display this nifty thin DOF, feel free to post them.

    So what kind of pictures do you take mostly with it?

    I have been using it for landscape shots and indoor photography. I am going to Enchanted Rock, a Texas State park, tomorrow to photograph with it.

    Like L fever, there's also "fast lens" fever. Once you get once fast prime, you can't stop...

    Do you think you're going to be shooting mostly with primes now?
