As can be seen there is less distortion and better corner sharpness with my examples.
The only negative is the 82mm filter size of which I also had to purchase another Lee filter holder as well as a new 82mm UV.
This lens is prob my most used lens and is quickly starting to become my fav........the first lens that I feel is close to a max score of 10 but not quite

Pros:
Nice wide angle zoom with good IQ on a 1D Mark III
Cons:
None
I can't find anything wrong with this piece of glass. It's gone through a group of shots now on both the 20D and 1D Mark III. It just works the way I thought it would. On the 20D I used the Canon 10-22mm for a long time and loved it. This is just as good IQ wise and built like those brick walls people love to shoot.
I made the purchase
