The debate EF-S or stick with EF only.

I debated over purchasing this lens for the fact that it is an EF-S lens, and I hope to buy into full from sensors in the future. I finally decided to purchase this lens for the simple fact that it will be 3 or more years before I get a full frame DSLR, and I have suffered without a wide lens for far too long! I am so glad I made the purchase, it is very sharp and for all I can see, distortion free as well. It may seem pricey, but I think its fair for what you are getting, and keeping in mind the price of high quality standard EF lenses, this may be actually a bargain.

Great lens!

Just as I expected. Outstanding Canon quality as always. Amazon service is always terrific!

Nice Item

About the only thing I would warn people about is that at the extreme wide angle setting, the lens casts a noticeable shadow when using the built-in flash.

Great lens

I purchased this lens for my Canon 40D. You can get a less expensive lens which may be entirely satisfactory, but over the long haul the Canon EF-S 10-22 is by far the best choice. It is superior in every way.

Expensive, but high quality. Minor sharpness issues in corners.

I'm a fairly serious amateur photographer, and have had mostly Canon equipment for 18 years or so. This lens has very good color balance, perhaps very slightly on the cool side. The lack of distortion for a lens this wide is pretty amazing. Things in the corners tend to distort the most, but even so, distortion is surprisingly low even at the 10mm end. Sharpness is mixed... At the 10mm end, the center of the photo tends to be very sharp (sharper than any of my other lenses in fact) and is reasonably sharp to the edges, but the corners are noticeably blurry even at F-stops in the middle of the range (which is where lenses are often at their best.) This may be a trait of ultra-wides, as I've seen it in other wide angle lenses. That issue goes away as the lens is zoomed away from the widest end.

Zooming and focus speed is Canon's usual impeccable quality.

I extensively investigated the Sigma 10-20mm as a cheaper alternative to this one, and was turned off by two things: the noticeably warm color tint and the quality control issues that Sigma seems to be having (my local camera store stopped carrying Sigma awhile back for this reason - too many returns.)
