If all you can afford is the Canon EF 20mm f/2.8 USM Lens, buy it and enjoy it. It will capture memories just fine.

As a wide-angle lens for cropped sensors, this lens falls a little short, with virtually all of the standard zooms giving a wider angle of view. However, on the full frame sensors that Canon are now producing, this lens still warrants its place in their line-up.

An excenlent lens from optics to handling to build quality and capable of serious landscape, low light and some architecture work.

The EF 17-40mm f/4L lens is a very sharp, high contrast zoom lens with performance characteristics that often match and sometimes exceed those of quality prime lenses at wide angle.
