The canon really is overpriced for what it is. My biggest gripe with it is that at 10mm, f3.5, it vignettes like crazy. I'm MARLON

Scrub the Tokina because I'll be dead and buried before it ever arrives in the country again. Looks like I'm just not meant to have a UWA lens. just order it online. B&h has theirs available mots of the time. I'm MARLON

It's a highly prized lens, and because they have low stock, the resale value of this 3rd party lens still remains quite high.

(well that and CA and flare... but shhhh... you didn't hear that from me...) Absolutely. And I'd nick out and buy one right this minute - if there were any available in this country. I really don't know if I'd order online from the US because of the potential problems with warranty etc but I've checked and B & H don't have the Canon mount available.

Not sure about the turd part, but it sure is overpriced compared to the magnificent Tokina 11-16mm 2.8. When you charge more than your competitor, you should have a faster lens with a better build and better IQ. But the Canon loses in all 3 catagories. Go figure.
