I would use it for sports. In the net at a soccer or hockey game, above the net at a basketball game next tom the ball in golf. That's the stuff I would use it for, then some landscapes or at amusement parks.

GREAT shot !! Gotta love it !!

I have a Tokina 12-24 on my 7D - an awesome lens. It might be interesting to find the download lens correction filter for your 10-22 on the 7D and apply that via PS in post to remove some of the non-linearity (although I'll never be able to remove all the non-linearity from the photos of my wife :lol: - - {of COURSE that's why I love her - - :-P })

Wide-angle lenses are great for shots taken indoors where you just can't back up far enough to get it all in with a narrower lens. Also - when you're at the Grand Canyon - - - (although there, I usually prefer a photo-stitching routine in post).

Here is correction of the curved lines. ( taken with a 8mm lens on my 7D )

On CS4 here is what i did:

Polygonal lasso > edit > Transform > Warp

You can do that with interiors scenes as well by making sure you take the pic a bit larger then needed, then manipulate it even if it involves cutting off some parts of the pic.

How close was the lens to your wife?


Not sure. Around 2 feet.

Not with this shot, but this lens goes hyperfocal at 1 meter. So anything past 3-4 feet will be in focus up to infinity. I need to try this.

And the minimum focus distance seems to be just a foot. Maybe less.

It's amazing how extreme W/A stretches out distance.

You can take some really dramatic sunsets with that lens, I took this one with my old Canon FT/QL 35 MM with my 19MM lens.
The top of this picture is above me when I took the shot.

Actually I guess you could say a very small portion was directly above me.
