My answer is f/2.8 Lenses take excellent indoor photos without a flash.
Not so good with the slower f/3.5-4.5 Lenses you're looking at.

Hmm! Which specific 10-18mm or 10-22mm zoom for a Canon APS-C camera are you thinking of with a max aperture of f/2.8?
Do you mean the Tokina or something else?

Remember you can always adjust the ISO to gain a stop or two. Just check where noise will become a factor at higher ISO values.
I shoot with the Canon EF-S 10-22mm and find it as sharp as a "L" quality lens. I also shoot with a Canon 16-35mm on my 6D. I use the 10-22mm when shooting real estate photos.

Here are some samples with ultra wide Canon(16mm). You can see how we have to be careful with ultrawide portraits. It accentuates the center of the image sometimes giving strange results. The football field is taken at 16mm and the cheerleaders were taken at about 20mm.

These are not great photos, but do show how people can be captured with ultrawide lenses, in natural light and in a confined space.
The first is with the Canon EF-S 10 -22 mm zoom, (rectilinear projection @ 10mm), the second using the Samyang 8mm fisheye (barrel distortion) just to demonstrate the comparison.
I like using very wide lenses, they do take some thought and are not very forgiving, especially with people, but can create some very distinctive images.
Good luck!

Two fine examples of when it's done wrong & when it's dome correctly.
The nose shot is why UWA glass is found sidewalk pricing.

There is also the Tonka 10-17. Very sharp lens
Tonka? Is that for toy cameras?

Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 AT-X I believe is the correct answer. It was on my shop list, but found the Canon 10-22 EFs. Tokina is well regarded and I have several friends that have had good reports. I did run into a Toy Camera lens for a E mount Sony the other day.

Yes, if you need a specific Lens in that range the Tokina 11-16mm f/2.8 is an example of a good Wide Angle Zoom Lens.
I personally use the Tokina 16-28mm f/2.8 Zoom and Love It.
Here are 2 shots unprocessed. #1 f/2.8 & #2 f/4. #2 is what I could see with the naked eye.
And #3 a slight amount of processing of #1 would bring out a beautiful shot.

OP was looking at 10mm start = 16mm. 18x1.6= 28.8mm, 8.8 is big difference I have found. Want to gift me the Sig no argument. I will find a hole.

Not ultra wide. 29mm equivalent on a crop sensor.

If you are shooting people indoors you need at least f2.8. I do not recommend shooting people anywhere with 10mm ! The Sigma 18-35 1.8 will work great !
