I've had my Sigma 35mm for a couple of days and I'm still in love with a few aspects - the build, the optics etc., but I'm still getting used to the perspective. Obviously a fair few bits of this are just a matter of getting used to it - I still put the camera up to eye, expecting the 50mm field of view from my Canon system. I know that these lenses are incredibly capable, if a little less forgiving than 50mm lenses, so I'm wondering if you guys have any tips?
I know a lot of you shoot them for weddings and more still have standard zooms with wide ends in this range, so I was wondering how you guys get the most of them? My compositions lack a bit of ooomph at the moment, though that may have a lot to do with my subjects a well - I'm shooting a lot of outdoor location stuff this week, so the intimate perspective of a 35 isn't so useful.
