And given that the 11-24 is probably the only rectilinear lens in that range for FF, and it only came out last year, I'd say, yes, it's a new category. | |

| Jan 13, 2016 at 17:33 | comment | added | Michael C | I guess if you go by the Wikipedia description you are correct. But I've never considered my 17-40 to be UWA, only WA. | |

| Jan 12, 2016 at 20:45 | comment | added | inkista | @MichaelClark Not necessarily. You don't have to get the 11-24L. The 16-35L II, a used 16-35L I or 17-35L, and the venerable 17-40L all cost less. And one can always go super-cheap with the Samyang 14/2.8. :) It is more costly than crop, but if, say, you go with a used 17-40L, not by a lot. | |

Adding note on expensive full-frame Ls.

Adding note about how the numbers are for crop, and full frame equivs addition.

| Jan 12, 2016 at 0:57 | comment | added | inkista | @DanWolfgang Good point. Given that the question already assumes a 700D, I took it as read. Adding. | |
| Jan 12, 2016 at 0:38 | comment | added | Dan Wolfgang | In your first paragraph, I think you should qualify that you're offering these focal length measurements for a crop sensor camera. | |
