I was on the fence about buying this for months. I was looking at the 24mm but also wanted something wider. If you have a kit lens and are looking for a second wider angle for landscapes or inside tight spaces this is the one.
The lens is very sharp. I was able to get my whole house in the frame when I was only a few meters back. It is very WIDE at 10mm on a crop sensor. (I am using a Canon 70D). I am no professional photographer but the more I get into the the more I love it and this lens is helping that even more. My biggest plan for it is videos in the house. I have a band that jams and I wanted to get all of the members in the same shot. Our jam room isn't huge so this will be perfect. It is near silent as well when focusing.
I will update my review if it gets noisy or has any kind of failures. If you are on the fence about it suck it up and buy it. You will not regret it.
If your thinking about buying this lens just DO IT. I love it.
