Good stuff...I think I will save my pennies for the 16-35LIS. But for 10mm, I didn't see anything that my EF-M 11-22 can't do just as well. Cheers.

It wasn't meant to replace the EF-M 11-22 or compete with it. It was designed as a good quality inexpensive UWA for crop sensor DSLRs. The quality of the EF-M 11-22 is insignificant for users of the 100D, 700D, 70D, 7D, etc. The quality of the EF-S 10-18 is important.

Wrong. I own a 650D. It does matter, and it does make a difference to me. For someone in my shoes who also owns an M--and I am not the only one--the new lens offers on paper nothing over the other lens except 10mm and price, but since I already own the other lens price is removed from the equation.

So, how well does your EF-M 11-22 work on your 650D?

You are again looking at this as someone who doesn't own an M, but whether you believe or like it, or not, there are Canon shooters out there who own an M, and for them, it is a real choice between the 10-18 and 11-22.

Just because it is irrelevant FOR YOU, doesn't mean we can't talk about it here.

And some who don't own an EOS-M yet might still consider getting an EOS-M with 11-22 instead of the 10-18 (because the 11-22 probably has highest SWA IQ on crop sensor, with relatively small size). At least outside the US
