A 28 mm lens has a very particular personality in street and travel photography. It sits in that interesting middle ground where the scene still feels natural and human, but the frame opens wide enough to capture context, architecture, and movement around the subject. The Canon EF 28 mm f/1.8 USM is one of those lenses that photographers often overlook today, partly because it belongs to the older EF generation, yet when used on modern mirrorless bodies it can deliver images that feel remarkably alive and immediate.
