The Canon 40mm 2.8 pancake lens. Went to London as the first part of my holiday and wanted to buy a new bag, spare batteries and extra CF cards (as was going on a long trip with possibly limited access to power and computer storage/upload). While in the shop the excellent salesman (curse him) showed me the pancake and my fate was sealed.

Rex - it sure is. It is my first prime and I love it.

Great news! I've been waiting along with you Jiko, looking forward to see what you and the 5D3 can do together. A capable instrument in the hands of a skilled practitioner. Wonderful, wonderful picts.

Thank you very much! :) I'm just impressed with the low light performance. With my 500D I hardly ever used ISO 1600 because of too much noise. Now I use ISO 2500 for long exposures and there is hardly any noise visible!
Just impressive! (And the 5D3 in combination with the Sigma 12-24mm is just a LOT of fun :D)
