Sharpest wide angle lens for canon mount?

HAHA, I just realized I never gave the link in my previous post....

You can set up another lens on the right and when you hover over the pic it will alternate between the two so you can compare.

Not to argue, because I am a huge fan of Tokina lenses, and agree that the low light option is nice to have....but the Canon 10-22 beats all of the competitors in every sharpness test I have ever read on wide angles for canon crop sensors.

I'm just going to rephrase that.


Yo i'm real happy for you and imma let you finish but the canon 10-22 is the sharpest wide angle lens of all time! of all time!


Sorry couldnt resist. :lmao:

actually if i had 2k to spend on wide angleness, i'd sell the 7d, buy the 5dmkii and a 17-40... or 16-35... lol

I have mentioned how much I like the 7D and 10-22.
This past weekend, I spent some early moring time with my 5Dmii and the 24-70 shooting low light landscapes. When I was viewing the lcd screen on the back of the camera, I was not very thrilled with the results...came very close to deleting most of them.

When I put them up on my un-calibrated 24" screen, I was very happy with the results. The depth of field and color/sharpness were a relief to see... where earlier I was thinking maybe the camera was not as great for me as I was originally thinking it would be.


I also took the 7D and the 50.4 out later in the afternoon, and was also very happy with the sharp, clear, closeup shots of some good old rusty equipment I found...:thumbup:

This might be a good duo for me, some more time shooting will let me know.

In those tests the sigma with the 'n' next to it amaze me for the price difference between that and the canon.. I know the canon is best, but I was quite impressed by the 1st sigma (& second was okay too)
