JJ269J 0 #1 March 2, 2004 Hey guys, I did a search and it returned a billion hits, so let me just ask for opinions here . I am shopping for a still cam to mount on my helmet. I think I am going with a Canon Rebel G2. I want a lens that has approx. the same field of view as my PC100 with a .45X wide angle lens, and don't know whether to get a 28mm or 24mm or what. Has anybody experimented with this (of course you have)? Thanks in advance to all the photo gurus!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WayCool 0 #3 March 3, 2004 I used to jump a PC100 with a 0.5 and a 0.45 conversion lens. I jumped it with an SLR 35mm with a 24mm fixed sigma lens and found the combination to work very well. The stills was a little wider than the video frame and I think that is best. Cheers Stay Cool http://www.waycool.com.au Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJ269J 0 #4 March 3, 2004 Thanks guys!! Your help is always apprieciated. Since the camera comes with a 28mm, I'll start with that and then get a 24mm. I agree that a little wider still is better.
