At f/4 though edges get soft so on a FF I'd expect that to be even softer wider Canon 5D Mark III - Canon 5D Mark II - Canon 7D - Canon 70-200 f/2.8L - Canon 24-70 f/2.8L - Canon 17-40L - Canon 85 f/1.8 - Canon 50 f/1.4 - Canon 580 exii (x2) - rokinon 8mm fishey

No offense, but if a 15-30 2.8 would do the job, I'd rather have a 24L II. Two stops more aperture and most likely much better performance at f/2.8.

If a man can afford the flagship model, he can't justify using a cheap Korean lens with it. 'The success of the second-rate is deplorable in itself; but it is more deplorable in that it very often obscures the genuine masterpiece. If the crowd runs after the false, it must neglect the true.' —Arthur Machen

OK I'll be more specific, I DO need AF, and also would like to avoid vignetting as well.
