ISO - Canon (or other) 10-22 mm lens to fit 5D M4

Looking to do some interior photos and need to get wider.
Camera is full frame so maybe 16mm would suffice.
Suggestions?

Be sure you understand the difference between a crop-sensor lens and a full frame. Canon's widest EF lenses are 8-15mm fisheye, a 11-24mm zoom and a 14mm prime. You've references two EF-S lenses (10-18 & 10-22) that do not mount directly to a full-frame camera. You may get suggestions to buy one, and modify it (aka break). You may also get suggestions to buy a 3rd party lens that can mount and will significantly vignette. The 10mm EFS lenses give a field of view of 16mm on their native crop sensor bodies. So, have you looked at Canon's multiple options that cover 16-35?

Thanks, CHG. I just started exploring this afternoon. Everything is new... I never wanted wide angle before... no experience there. Will check your suggestion.

wow... Break out a new mortgage! Maybe I should try to fit up the 7d?

for the 5D4, you have a number of choices in the EF lenses (EF-S lenses such as the 10-18 will not mount without modification and will vignette). In terms of zooms, there is (in order of decreasing cost) the 16-35 F2.8L, the 16-35 F4L and the 17-40L. In terms of primes, there is a number of choices from 14-35mm and a plethora of others from 3rd party suppliers.

Hi PhotoKurtz - If cost is an issue, you might look at the EF 15 f2.8 too. It is a fish eye but can do some nice interior,
and exterior shots, and the fish eye is mild enough to be worth correcting. If you are competing for business, then you might want to look at the EF 11-24. It is the most expensive of Canon's Wide Angle lenses, but it can produce interior images that are a bit more difficult to capture with much else.

Although it’s an older design, the 17-40 f4L is on sale at Canon refurb at $589 and can be found used in the $350-400 range. I use mine for interior shots and find that at 17mm, it’s wide enough for any room I’ve photographed and a lot of performance for the $.

I can recommend the EF 16-35mm f/4 L IS USM for interior work, too; it’s one of the more reasonably priced L lenses and I haven’t yet found a room at the 16mm end that I can’t photograph with my 5D Mk iv. Ken Rockwell seems to like it too: http://kenrockwell.com/canon/lenses/16-35mm-is.htm
Sorry if I’ve inadvertently suggested not a wide enough lens for your needs? I want to just comment that you mentioned a 7D (Mk ii?), and so, there’s a very good option in the EF-S 10-18mm IS? Here’s Mr. Rockwell again, with an interesting comparison: http://www.kenrockwell.com/tech/comparisons/2014-06-11-canon-10-18mm-vs-16-35mm-f28-ii/index.htm

I use a 16-35 2.8L on my 5DIV to photograph interiors of travel trailers. It works quite well for me.

I do real-estate photos and find my 17-40 works just fine on my FF 5DIII. Of course how much of the "interior" needs to be seen. With real estate the entire room does not. Also note, the wider you go the more the edges turn to crap. Your going to find that the lighting or lack thereof will be your biggest nemesis. using flash, ambient, some combination? Back lit windows? While some people try to use flash for fill, ok, until a room with reflective surfaces and then care to aim at ceiling. I've never used a flash a rely on ambient light for the most part and use a tripod and ISO 100. Shoot raw and set your WB after.

I'm using a Canon 16-35 f/4 for interior shots and it works extremely well for that purpose. I've yet to try it for anything else. I tried a 14mm but the distortion was too extreme.

Looks like the EF 17-40 gets consistent good reviews. Available used from $400. I always find a better deal the next day, so maybe I'll drag my feet for 24-hours.
