I like 30mm on film = 20mm on APS-C
I find it to be the most natural focal length , its also perfect for shooting from the hips

with a normal lens what your eyes see is what you get just with a frame.

a 30mm lens I feel gives you the real natural illusion of what you see ...
to me it gives more realism to your photos especially if its a good lens with no distortion .
which makes it for me the best focal length for documentary.

wider then that is getting in to surrealism which can be also very cool in some situations
