Re: Wide Angle: How picky should I be?

If you don't need f/2.8 then the canon 16-35 f/4 is probably the best bang for your buck for uwa zoom. If you are always shooting f/8-f/11 then most of the lenses are pretty close, corner softness is mostly an issue wide open. There are also third party options, the tamron 24-70 f/2.8 VC is very popular and cheaper than the canon. There is also the tamron 15-30 f/2.8 VC which is newly released.
