Those with the Canon like it better, those with the Siggy like it better. Both are good. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

My Canon 10-22, while always a performer, feels like a toy. Build quality aside, I LOVE MY 10-22! Probably my favorite lens to shoot with and you cant go wrong with any of these choices. -Will

($599.90) http://www.adorama.com …searchinfo=11-16mm+tokina Any of these three Tokinas are great lenses and excellent values. They all have constant apertures (f/4 or f/2.8) and come with lens hoods. I don't know why I get a smiley face instead of the numeral "8". Believe me I typed 8. They are built like tanks, provide excellent IQ and are delightful to shoot with. The numeral 8 followed immediately by a right bracket converts to a "cool" smilie here on the board. I normally put a space between the two to avoid this, or avoid putting an aperture size ending in 8 between brackets. EOS R & EOS 5 (analog) with a gaggle of primes & 3 zooms, OM-D E-M1 Mk II & Pen-F with 10 primes, 6 zooms, 3 Metabones adapters/speedboosters, and an accessory plague
