18-55mm + WD-58 "Forward Falling"
I felt something quite physically powerful, I guess in a psychological kind of way, when I rotated this picture... I was drawn to it, decided that it infact belongs this way around, despite what Gravity'll tell you. It seems to have it's own gravity - deal with it! Thoughts?
I was considering getting a ~10mm kinda' wide angle lens... but for the price they go at I think I've found a much better solution, considering I need to save pennies for other lenses right this minute! This is using my WD-58 Wide Converter video WA Lens for my old Canon XM2... fits the 18-55mm IS Kit Lens perfectly (which is incredibly sharp glass, don't let the kit-lens-haters tell you otherwise!) Also knocks out decent aperture width compared to super-wide lenses... this is quite a winning combo!
Also; This glass is enough to damage a kit lens or even a more expensive lens if left to throw it's weight around too much... I don't leave this glass attached for too long and I support it whilst in use - I'm pretty sure I've slightly damaged the older, less solid Canon Kit 18-55mm lens a few years back, I don't want to harm my IS model - but I freaking love what these things can do together!
