Hi Kristin,

FYI - The main difference between the 12-24 DG and the ones you're looking at is that the 12-24 works with film bodies. Since I also have an EOS 3, it was important to me that it be compatible. Like you I was a little worried when I ordered it because while there were some reviews here they weren't by anybody I knew. But I googled it and combining PR's reviews with what I saw at other places convinced me to go for it - I just love wide. Good luck!
