Wide Angle Lens for Harry Potter/Universal Studios???

[Sharon Kay]

We are getting ready to go to Universal Studio/Islands of Adventure to visit Hogwarts, Diagon Alley, etc. and I would like to purchase a wide angle (low f stop) to use in shops, maybe Diagon Alley, or anywhere I might need a wide angle to get good shots WITHOUT using a flash. I don't think I want a zoom as I can switch lens if that makes it less expensive.

We are also going to be visiting Disney for 2 days ... I know there were many times over the last several years I wished I had had a wide angle lens.

Suggestions on where to look for best price & what do you recommend for a lens? I don't want it looking distorted (circular) ... would like as natural as possible. Thank you!

One of these days I am going to start scrapping again...I have continued to buy kits...my next album which I would like to have completed within 3 months is my college graduation album! My kids are all in their 20's now...and I am graduating college!
