Well I got the Tokina 17mm f 3.5. What I think so Far

Well it is nicely built seems to be Canon quality. No red dot on outside of lens to help line it up, there is a red dot inside, found out I just have to use the AF/MF switch.

Well the lens, I guess it all comes down to width, width isn't that what all women love, width not length.

Well I put the lens on my 10D, attached it to a trip pod and did a lens to lens comparison. First the 50mm 1.4 , then a 28-80mm f 3.5- 5.6,(set at 28 of course) then the tokina 17mm f 3.5.

All photos taken set at f 3.5, 1/30th, and so on and so on, oh yeah all at the same distance from the subject. Next when I get some time I will do the photo quality tests.

Oh yeah do I like it, Well, I like it so far and I think it is going to serve its purpose very well and I am happy I did not buy the fisheye and try to defish everything.

The last pic is not very sharp, I want to say it was me not the lens!!!!

I'm not sure I understand the comparison. They are all taken at different focal lengths. Are you comparing the angle of view or the lenses?

Yes the comparison is to show how wide the pictures are and I used the lenses with the different focal length because these are lens people will have. I had hoped it would help them get a visual of what the different focal lengths will do. Buy the way here are two more, one to show width(the van) and the other for quality.
