Death of a lens

My basic workhorse camera lens has reached the end of a long, painful death. It covered the medium-to-wide range (18-55mm), and it is damn difficult to photograph city buildings without it!

If anyone out there has a spare wide-angle lens for a Canon Digital Rebel they need to get rid of, or knows where I can pick up one on the cheap, drop me a line. This was the style of my old one, but anything that covers the 18mm zoom region would be swell.

Buy the same lens. You're not going to get much cheaper than $135 (Amazon). Of course you can check eBay or the local pawn shop for the lens . . .

Try Craig's List -- a lot of people buy kits and then sell the kit lens for cheap when they upgrade their lenses. You can also try photo4less.com. I think they have that lens for $133.
