Fisheye

I have done some research on what lens is the best for the XTi but, what fisheye lens do you photo guru's on e90 recommend?

Honestly, the fish eye on a crop body is pretty useless. You might as well get a super wide angle like a 10-22 or similar.

Really? Why do you say that? My 10.5DX fisheye on my D200 is a great lens. Not a primary lens by any stretch, but they can be a lot of fun.

That's a great lens! Very versatile for walking around. Lots of options in a small package.

The Canon 10-22mm is not really a fisheye, but a great wideangle lens for your XTi.
