Best in class, no regrets

I have owned this lens for several years now. It has been lovingly abused regularly during that time, as shooting interiors for the real estate industry accounts for a significant portion of my field time. I have also had the opportunity to shoot with the various contender lenses over time, and I simply love this 10-22 Canon lens. It takes a beating without denting, cracking, or developing worn areas in it's finish.
It's optical performance was eye opening on my first 30D, and it still delivers fantastic images on my current 40D, and 50D bodies. Even in the Everglades on a bright summer day, and from all compass points, the lens delivers very pleasing sharpness, contrast, and detail. It also delivers very low levels of distortion for an ultra wide zoom at any price point, and even that is easily tweaked in post processing.
My lens has untold miles of use (it is number two of the two most often used lenses for me out of the studio), yet it still cleans up to look as new, it still performs optical magic as it did on day one, and it still has the sound, smooth, mechanical feel it had when new.
I absolutely love this lens.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Ist Class Ultra Wide Angle Zoom
on February 24, 2009
Posted by: Fotomatt
from Los Angeles
I must second all of the comments made by Digital Seeker.
Many of the most spectacular images I have ever taken have been with this lens. No need to stitch 3 or 4 images
to create a panoramic scene; just crop a single image made at 10mm. Images are sharp and well defined.

My only minor reservation is that the lens should have come with a lens hood in the box, not as an extra (and much needed) accessory.
Pros: Super-sharp images, Fast auto-focus
Cons: no lens hood

SUPERB SUPER-WIDE LENS
on January 25, 2009
Posted by: Digital Seeker
from Washington state
I buy only L lenses for my Canon cameras -- whether digital or film. There is one exception. I bought this 10-22mm for use with my EOS 40D. This lens, in my experience (a serious photographer for more than 50 years) is the equivalent to an L lens in every respect. It is a "must have" for anyone shooting an APS-C sensor digital body and desiring absolutely superb wide-angle performance.
Pros: Super-sharp images, Superior build quality, Fast auto-focus

Great Ultra Wide
on November 20, 2008
Posted by: Anonymous
Nothing comes close to this lens for your crop sensor Canon. Very well put together, very good IQ, and a fairly small and light package. I use mine for landscapes and travel and it works great.
Pros: Fast auto-focus, best wide range

"L" Lens performance for APS-c
on September 23, 2009
Posted by: Donnie G.
from Chicago, IL
No, it doesn't have an f-2.8 aperture, or metal lens barrel. So what? The lens is lightweight, compact, sharp, very comfortable to operate, with smooth turning zoom and focus rings. It balances very well on my 40D camera body, and only draws undo attention when I have the accessary lens hood attached. Most importantly, this 10-22 wide angle zoom delivers image quality every bit as good as what can be attained with it's full frame 16-35, and 17-40 L series cousins. Add to that the very useful 77mm front filter diameter that allows me to mount my pro sized filters and polarizers, and well, I don't see a down side. Love it!
Pros: Super-sharp images, Superior build quality, Fast auto-focus

Truly astonishing lens!!!
on December 27, 2012
Posted by: Flying Scotsman
from Charlotte, NC
My every-day digital imaging requirements are better suited to APS-C format sensors ... but that doesn't mean I want to get locked out of the "normal" 17-28mm wide angle shooting opportunities ... Tried a Tokina 12-24mm AT-X several years ago and it was worthless, marshmallow-soft and chromatic edge-discoloured beyond correction. Enter a truly astonishing lens, the amazing EF-S 10-22mm!!! Not enough "w's" and "o's" in the alphabet to spell the number of "WOW's!" this incredble lens deserves! Yes, at 10mm, there's no mistaking this is anything short of an ultra-wide but the actual distortion is well-corrected and I can find absolutely minimal purple-fringe chromatic aberration - even when I pixel-peep. Thought it was a wee bit expensive for a lens w/o a red stripe on the front ... but it most certainly performs every bit like one!!! No questions here: TWO THUMBS UP!!! This lens is a treat to use and to a 1.6x factor body, a real "game changer"!!!
Pros: Fast auto-focus, Superior build quality, Super-sharp images

L type glass

from Licoln Ne
I got this lens to capture lightning, and landscapes. And wow, it has done all of this and more, it is the sharpest lens I own, and I love the wide angle. It is a little exspensive for a non L lens, but is makes up for it in performance. The wide angle comes in handy when taking photos of unpredictable lightning. The close focus is also good for photos of flowers. All in all I am super happy with this lens.
Pros: Superior build quality, Super-sharp images, close focus

Incredible Lens !
on January 26, 2010

I can't say enough about this lens. The pictures are as sharp as a knife. With this lens you will have a great time with your friends and family shooting all those memories. Pull in the entire room of people without them having to gather together for a shot. Great for candid shots indoors. Take pictures of your pets indoors jumping around. This lens is easily a keeper ! I just wish it was an EF lens and not an EF-S lens so I won't have to get rid of it in the future when full frame cameras come down in price. In the meantime I know this lens will see lots and lots of use. If you like to shoot scenery and need to get it all into the frame then this is the lens for you. With the crop factor it shoots 16-35mm which is plenty wide for nearly anything you can think of. I love this lens ! Oh and did I say it's built like a tank? Well it is.
Pros: Fast auto-focus, Superior build quality, Super-sharp images, perfect focal length
Cons: none
I would recommend this to a friend!
