Sigma 10-20. Relatively cheap and the widest UWA out there for APSC. Look out for quality issues like focusing problems before you buy though.
Only downside is that its rather large.
Check out a few threads in Canon sub-forum.
Hot item will be EFS 10-22; Tokina 11-16 and Sigma 10-20. Also Sigma 12-24 and Tokina 12-24
the sigma 10-20 got great reviews by thom hogan ( he was comparing against nikon wide zooms )

a small excerpt on his positives
Good enough. I've tested a lot of options in the 10-12mm range, and they all come with liabilities. The Sigma's liabilities are more livable for a landscape shooter than the alternatives.
A good value. I've dragged this lens around the world. It holds up to my abuse and gives me that good enough performance I just mentioned. Considering it costs less than the Nikkor, that makes it a decent value, too.
Might have some sample variations, so check before making purchase
Happy shopping and shooting

Good. Our good friend Shen siung has listed quite comprehensively the WA lenses that you may like to see.
