| All of those are going to warp perspective if not held parallel. 16mm will be worse, but even the 24mm will be very noticeable. I think those lenses were just recommended as 'good wide angle' with no consideration for the 2nd part of what you were looking for. Pretty sure the TSE's are the only ones that can fill both parts of your ideal wideangle. |

| The Sigma 10-20 will NOT work on a Full Frame body. The best bang for yur buck on a 5D is without doubt the Canon 17-40mm f/4L, but if you need f/2.8 then you'll have to go with the Canon 16-35mm f/2.8L Version I or II. |

i have the 17-40 and I love it.
if you have the cash to buy the 16-35 you could get the 17-40 and the 28mm 1.8.
thats what i'm looking at doing. |

Check it out, and read some reviews. Supposedly amazing glass, and you can correct perspective, and change DOF. It is however, a manual focus lens. |

True, so all depends on what Judi is thinking when she says "warp perspective." Most folks are aware that any rectilinear lens will still make lines converge when out of parallel, but I think (correct me if I'm wrong judi) that she's referring to the "fisheye effect" where, unlike rectilinear lenses, straight lines become curved.

Yes. I don't mind the bowed horizon...but not exaggerated as I get in some fisheye....I want to have some realism too it when I don't want the horizon centre without cropping. I want a little more flexibility to my outcome.
