    I used this lens for 1 week and took over a 200 photos in various shutter speed/aperture combinations; all of them turned out so-so to no good. The center sharpness is ok, but the sharpness and distortion of the image becomes unacceptable, starting about half-way to the image edge.

    I don’t believe I received a bad copy of this lens as a previous reviewer had as I didn’t find one side of the image to be better or worse than the other and the autofocus seemed to be on target.

    I have taken nearly one thousand pictures with this camera, anything from architecture to nature. While my initial assessment of the camera was good, after having it for some time, I feel that the fuzziness of the pictures is unacceptable. I guess I felt as though it was my initial settings, or maybe becuase of the wide angle of the lens this was something that was par for the course. I have since read about softness on right or left side with this leans, but my experience is clarity is no good accross the entire frame, in EVERY situation. I will either send back for repair or get rid of it for the cannon 10-22 lens.

    I’ve had it a few months now and it’s great. Works great with my Canon 20D.

    This is a nice lens. It is well built, and has added some creativity to my shots. No complaints.

    This lens is a good deal between price and optical limitations.

    It works as expected , exactly what I needed : ultra wide angle lens.

    Don’t forget to use only a small UV filter ( or another filter ).
