Wide-angle lenses are essential for landscape photography, which is one of, if not the most popular, photographic genre. So when a brand new ultra wide-angle lens hits the shelves it's always going to be of interest to many of us.

Great REALLY wide angle zoom
If you're in the market for a very wide angle zoom, this one is certainly worth considering.While there is distortion, that's to be expected with this type lens. The images it produces are, in a word, sharp.Its maximum f-stop tends to make shooting dim interiors difficult without a support
Pros:
- Consistent Output
- Easily Interchangeable
- Lightweight
Cons:
- Poor in Low Light

Super, super, superwide!
This is my favourite lens without a shadow of a doubt. It's superb for landscapes and producing amazingly artistic photos from all manner of subjects. It's sharp as a knife and tough too.
