1. It was raining earlier but I just couldn't stay home with that brand new lens laying beside me lol and I was definitely not disappointed with it!

6. Stupid rain drops

Nice shots, a 10-22mm?

Told you it's an amazing lens.

nope. It was a Sigma 10-20



hahaha nice "I told you so" comment jk
but I do agree with you that it's a really amazing lens and I was also surprised by how sharp it is even at a 100% crop.
100% crop of center area of #3



Anyway! Now I am going to try to find a decent filter for this lens lol. I am not sure if I want to spend 250 bucks plus tax on a B+W circular polarizer though lol maybe I'll get the much cheaper Hoya...
What kind of filter are you using on yours?

I'm impressed

I'm just using a protective filter, is all. I wanted a polorizer, but felt like spending 200 bucks on something a little more useful. Plus, polorizers are a little different on wide angles than any other lens.

WOW THOSE PICTURES ARE WAY BETTER

I can tell there is a HUGE difference!

And I love all of them!

WOW.
It may just be me, but I notice a HUGE increase in clarity and quality!!! Soo nice!!

Well if you check the response to the question I asked in thephotoforum that Hoya Pro D1 filter may be just as good as that 200+ dollar B+W filter. Like you I am totally not willing to pay 200+ bucks for a stupid filter lol.





hahaha! Thanks guys
I don't know why my 17-85 lens perform so poorly sometimes lol maybe it's just me but you are right that Sigma lens is noticeably sharper and it's actually cheaper than the Canon lens stupid greedy Canon lol
