I have the oportunity to buy (second hand) one of these three lenses for my 5D.
Prices are similar (about 300 euros)
I hesitate between an UWA for landscapes, or a fish eye for skateboard and other special photos.

Any recommendations?

I love my 15-30 on the 5D.

15-30 is very underrated IMO. At least as good as my current 17-40mm if you don't need the extra length (which is why I sold mine!)

Could you post a picture taken with your 15/30 @ 15mm in your 5D?
