[QUOTE="sarahsboy18, post: 235274, member: 8992"] I've heard OK things about the 10-22mm... But I wish they had an L version with a better maximum aperture. I have used the 16-35mm and it was decent but not anything amazing... Slow AF and not very sharp until f/4... Now, 14mm f/2.8L is pretty much a $1,800 waste of glass.... It is so soft that it doesn't even become usable until f/6.3 especially on a crop camera. My only hope is that I simply was using a bad copy... but most reviews I have seen on it are pretty much along the same lines. Don't get me wrong... I'm not going to switch to Nikon over it or anything... I love Canon, their WAs at least get the job done, and I'm sticking with them. It's just that WA is not their strongsuit the way that their teles are. If I was shooting a ton of stuff where I needed WA and was starting to build my collection from scratch I'd be more drawn to Nikon than Canon.... By the same token as I love shooting sports Canon turned out to be best choice for me. [/QUOTE]
