I was lacking a really short lens for Landscape ..... fisheyes don't hold it for me but a really short,sharp lens with good control of barreling does. This is probably the only lens out there that has all the above features in spades .....

Fabulous. It's like having a full frame camera now. If you shoot landscapes or architecture this lens is a must.
This is a great lens and exceeded my expectations. It is V E R Y wide!
Durable; Easily Interchangeable; Fast / accurate auto-focus; Strong Construction

This lens did give me good, sharp images- once I figured it out. I bought this primarily for real estate interiors and urbex photography. One of the very first things I noticed about this lens, was it gave dark images.

CA towards edges of the frame at 8mm; Falloff at 8mm; No way to attach filters
I really like extreme lenses. Extremely wide, extremely fast, and extremely long lenses will all allow you to create unique images that stand out from the crowd. When I heard about the Sigma 8-16mm lens I wanted to get my hands on one and start shooting, so I asked my editor if I could borrow one...
Add the Sigma 8-16mm Ultra Wide Angle Zoom Lens to our ever expanding list of coveted photography toys. The Sigma 8-16mm lens is the widest angle zoom lens currently in the market, built specifically for DSLR's with APS-C sized sensors.
The Sigma 8-16mm f/4.5-5.6 DC HSM Lens delivers very good image quality, has solid build quality, has fast and quiet HSM AF and has a reasonable price. But perhaps the most exceptional Sigma 8-16 feature is the ultra wide angle range of focal length range available - including the widest focal...
