Just what I want. Can I have it soon? Nikon seems to have it's head on straght with a 12-24 zoom for smaller sensors. I love the 1.6 multiplier for wildlife, use my 16-35 as a walkaround lens, and still need something like the 12-24. I really don't want to ever go to a full frame sensor as there are too many advantages to the small sensors with normal optics, so if you make one, I will buy it, Canon, and I suspect so will a lot of other people.
