Hi Noel!

It's Canon's newest... the 20D-WAS (Wide Angle System), intended to overcome 
the 1.6 angle of view factor with the APS-C sensors.  It uses a thin sheet of 
special micro-lenses, hung just behind the mirror, to compensate, so a 21mm SA 
gives the same angle of view as on a standard 35mm camera.
