Il est assez impressionnant de proposer à un tel prix un ultra grand angle de marque.+ Hyper léger+ Très compact+ Autofocus excellent que ce soit en photo ou en vidéo, un bon autofocus devient très important quand on se colle à moins d'un mètre du sujet et que l'on doit conserver des sujets nets à quelques mètres ce qui est le cas si l'on veut remplir le cadre en dessous de 14mm+ IS très utile en intérieur pour compenser la faible ouverture+ Qualité d'image très correcte vu les focales et le range+ Un complément idéal aux 18-55 et 55-250 qui sont elles aussi de bonnes optiques qui doivent participer au succès commercial.+ Pas de réel concurrent que ce soit chez Canon ou ailleurs+ Jusqu'à 14mm on a des angles de champ larges classiques, en dessous plus on s'approche des 10mm on vire vers le psychédélique avec des perspectives dilatées à l'extrême- Ouvertures faibles, mais le /4 /5,6 est de rigueur dans cette gamme de prix- Les qualités optiques ne sont pas sans défauts, mais ses concurrents non plus, quant aux focales fixes et zooms pro. les prix deviennent stratosphériques- Sous les 14mm composer une bonne image devient sportifBref une bonne optique à un prix étonnant pour découvrir les joies et les peines du super grand angle.

Well, this was my first day with this lens and I absolutely loved it! If you have never (I had not either) shot wide angle, it is so much fun. Like taking pictures with only primes, you look at everything differently. I will not review the lens itself, there are so many better qualified to do so than me....and this gets really good reviews at this sorta money, better than the 10-22mm at twice the price. Did I say it was light, carry all day lens? Perfect for me on the move.I will say, if you are still worried (at this price) about corner to corner sharpness, vignetting & barrel distortion you are spending way too much time reading and not enough time taking pictures. If you are taking pictures dead on perfectly straight brick walls to see barrel distortion, not only do your pictures suck, you have way too much time on your hands. Equipment nowadays is way better than most non-professional pictures takers anyways. If you cannot take good pictures with this lens, you are doing something wrong! The hardest thing is keeping your horizons straight.My only suggestion, this lens is slow at max F4.5. If you are shooting indoors such as Real Estate or Churches you need a tripod. This is not a lens for stopping action indoors. Get a 24mm F2.8 (or something) for taking pictures of your kids. When shooting landscape, you are shooting ~F8.0 or higher anyway for depth of field, this lens is perfect for that. The Image Stabilization on this 'slow' lens is a really great inclusion as it is useful and needed handheld.My first day out, 15km group hike, weather sucked (no sun), running from picture to picture with no time to think, came away with some fun, interesting pictures that are totally shareable. As time goes on, good weather, have more time to compose shots and 'understand' wide angle, it can only get better from here. Some might say my photo's are mediocre and they would be 100% correct but I am doing it, and sharing it nonetheless. It would not be fun otherwise (T1i camera, first day 10-18mm IS STM).[Update] - added some more picture (sunset/buildings) once weather was good. The top of the sunset sky almost right above me (wide angle at work). Note the lens flare, this lens is not immune.

This lens rocks! I had not anticipated how much fun it would be, for both photo and video work. I have been in the market for a decent wide angle for my 70D for some time now... the tokina 11-16 f/2.8 is everyone's favorite for this, but $600ish dollars is just more than I'm willing to spend on a lens I (didn't) anticipate having mounted on my camera too terribly often. Canon's own ef-s 10-22 is similar as well, but also quite pricey, and i really don't need that little bit of extra zoom range it offers, as I already have a sigma 18-35 f1.8 which is much, much sharper anyway...So after reading a number of very positive reviews of this new 10-18, and especially after seeing it's awesomely low (for canon) price of $299, i thought i'd give it a try. Yes, it is rather slow aperture-wise, so it's not so great for low light stuff or anything, but it is so useful! I hadn't realized how much wider (and how often!) i wanted to get past 18mm until i had the option to, and all of the sudden my sigma 18-35 has started feeling cramped, and i find myself reaching for the 10-18 way more often than i would have thought.The super wide 10mm allows me to get shots that previously would have been impossible, especially in small, cramped rooms, and from a very cool perspective as well. For example the other day I was shooting a band recording in a small, cramped studio space, and i was able to get awesome full body shots from just like 2 or 3 feet away. This lens also has a much closer minimum focus distance than its competitors, enabling it to get super unique shots up a lot closer to your subjects than you could be with those other lenses.For video, the wider the lens the more stable everything looks and the less you notice little bumps or shakes in the camera, which is great for shooting handheld (plus that image stabilizer!) but it gets even more awesome with this lens up on my shoulder stabilizer. Moving shots at 10mm are basically indistinguishable from a glidecam or steadicam shot, especially with a little warp stabilizer added in post. Even going up and down stairs at a pretty fast, even pace, this thing glides effortlessly along at those wide angles, plus the STM focusing means it's fast and silent when autofocusing (70D) as well.The plastic mount does not bother me, everyone is obsessed with metal lens mounts but i have had a 50mm 1.8 for years and never had a single problem with it's supposedly crappy plastic mount and so i don't anticipate any problems with the 10-18 either. The whole "plasticy"ness in general that so many people complain about with cheaper lenses like these doesn't phase me, i only care about the glass itself, and the image quality it can achieve... which in this case is very respectable, no complaints at all. If you google head to head this verse the 10-22mm it's actually beating it in a lot of different areas, you should check out some reviews if you're on the ropesTL;DRAwesome price, awesome and unique wide angle shots, I'm very pleased with this lens
