Hi canon-ers, would like to get feedback from those owning this lens as to wether there is significant difference compared to other brands like tokina 11-16mm, sigma 10-20mm...etc...thanks...
Canon EF-S 10-22mm f3.5-4.5 IS USM...worth to invest on compared to 3rd party lens??

i thought the canon 10-22 didn't have IS. I have a sigma 10-20 F3.5 and i think it's a pretty nice lens.
I'm quite sure the canon version has no IS.
I have been researching on this topic as well as i'm planning to get a UWA lens for my system... it's direct competition i guess is the sigma 10-20/12-24mm ...
and after stumbling upon this review

opssss...it doesnt??my bad...but then again, i'm leaning towards this lens rather than the others...so am hoping to get first hand comments from those owning one...
I'm using the Canon 10-22 and it has been great so far.
To me, the IQ is just like a L, only in EF-S mount.

It's significantly sharper than all the third party UWAs other than the Tokina 11-16. Was considering between the 10-22 and the Tokina but got the 10-22 since it focuses much closer and goes wider(1mm difference may seem very little but in UWA photography, it means alot).
1 cent money 1 cent goods.
There are no 3rd party UWA lens that betters the Canon 10-22mm technically. But often these 3rd party lens is enough for most shooters.
Still, I will choose the 10-22mm simply for the fact it has a very high resale value.
I bought mine at $850 used 1 year ago and I still see them being sold for $900.

I am using the 10-22 EFS, very nice lens and good pictures produced. It's a little expensive now, but I think worth the money if the IQ is important to you.
10-22 is the other part to the 17-55.
their quality is 2nd to none on the market.
i think its purely for marketing reasons canon chooses not to label them L lenses (or perhaps as exclusive term for EF lenses.

When I was doing my research for this lens it was basically a toss up between the Canon 10-22 vs the Tokina 11-16. The Tokina is sharper, cheaper and f/2.8 but has more CA and a limited range. Canon is sharp in its own right, super flare resistance, exhibits very low distortion and has less CA and has a versatile range. Choose the one that suits your needs best, can't go wrong with either.
