Pros:
|
cheap, very small and light, decent sharpness, good colours, decent IS
|
|
Cons:
|
slow apperture, crappy build tolerance or it's just AF accuracy (quite often one edge of the photo is very off focus)
|
|
|
very cheap yet very useful lens for travelling photographers. but at least mine 10-18 can show very poor sharpness along the edges (and I don't just mean corners) quite often which I think has something to do with build tolerance and consistency of the optical assembly. when it nails it, it's great.

Pros:
|
Very sharp for the price, effective IS, cheap, feels solidly built for a light plasric lens.
|
|
Cons:
|
slow aperture, vignetting wide open.
|
|
|
All you need for aps-c landscapes. At least the equal of the 10-22 in all but build and (upper) zoom range. IS is surprisingly useful even if it's only an effective 2 stops at wider FLs. Plastic mount sounds awful but is not a proiblem in reality. Does an admirable job at a very low price.

Pros:
|
FANTASTIC quality for the money! God range when used alongside 17-85 lens, light and easy to use.
|
|
Cons:
|
Not much info on lens (No fucus distance for instance)
|
|
This lens is a must at the price, fantastic IQ, range is perfect for a n EFS (Roughly 16-28 if you scale up to a full frame equivalent) it is pretty quick anyway and the IS works. Rendition is good and although there is a little distortion it is wall within what you would expect from ANY lens at this angle - remember the corners of the picture ARE much further from the sensor plane than the middle for a flat object - so they will seem that way.
Don't take my word for it - here is a Flickr album all with this lens on an EOS 70D

Then prize a few quid form your wallet and buy one! You won't regret it!

Pros:
|
Cheap, light weight, compact, fast and silent Auto focus, Image Stabilizer
|
|
Cons:
|
Flares easily, focus by wire manual focusing
|
|
|
A good cheap ultra wide lens for crop cameras! Image stabilizer works great, auto focus is fast and silent (just like the other EF-S STM zoom lenses) only negative is the lens tends to suffer from Lens flare quite easily so a lens hood is pretty much essential, focus by wire makes it difficult to manual focus (especially at night and trying to set it to infinity) also being a STM lens if the camera goes into sleep mode you need to re-focus again when the camera wakes up but other than that it's a great lens for the money.
If you are looking for a UWA lens on a budget then this is the lens for you!

Pros:
|
Astonishingly good IQ for the money, light, sharp, cheap, good image stabilization
|
|
Cons:
|
A bit slow for maximum aperture, rather limited focal length range (just 10mm to 18mm) build quality definitely not brilliant, but no rattles or wobbles - it's fine but I wouldn't want to get it soaked.

The new range of Canon lenses seem to be universally excellent. This is no exception.
Canon have never been known for making quality wideangles but this is amazing value for such a good lens.
The lens occasionally needs to 'wake up' if the camera goes into standby and it will only manually focus if the camera is active, but that's no real problem if you know about it.
If you don't have a 10-22mm and you mainly use the crop Canon bodies just buy one.
