honestly, i'd consider some old manual focus prime lenses + adapters for your EOS... you're lucky that the adapters are $20 and work well with EOS.
Old metal ring manual focus lenses are a joy to follow focus with compared to AF plastic.
The Nikon AIS 28mm F2.8 is extremely sharp, has a long focus pull, and focusses very close and is $200-300 used.
The Contax Zeiss 28mm F2.8 is astoundingly sharp-contrasty, bites a bit in a way, and it's about $250-350 used.
The Nikon 35 F1.4 AIS is very nicely bokeh-smooth at close distances, and has a nice focus pull.
These lenses are lunch money compared to an L zoom, and you can sell them for the same you paid.
