According to our camera lens expert
With the Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM lens, you can approach a subject up to no less than 24 cm. And even then you fit everything in the picture with ease. This super-wide-angle lens allows you to shoot even the smallest details with great depth and dynamism. The Ultrasonic Motor works hard and inaudibly to provide super-fast autofocus. The lens is specifically designed for cameras with EF-S fitting and reserved for digital photography. Thanks to its compact and light design, this lens will never be a bother to you. As icing on the cake, reflections and lens flare are kept to a minimum, allowing colors to completely come into their own.

If you have a Canon APS-C sensor camera: 300D, 350D, 400D, 450D, 550D, 600D, 650D ,40D, 50D, 60D or the 7D and you want a wide angle lens, this is the most suitable lens you can get. imagine. Even though this is an EF-S lens, you still have to add the crop factor of the Canon camera (1.6x). So the real range of this lens is 16-35mm.
The lens is made of a better kind of plastic than (300D - 650D), but once connected to the camera it is nicely balanced, which cannot be said of all lenses.
What's great about this lens is that even the smallest of spaces seem to be gigantic! The lens does suffer from barrel distortion, but this is only normal. Another big advantage of the lens is its fast and silent auto-focus. Which, by the way, is just a little off. If this is still the case, the lens has Full-Time-Manual-Focus to manually shift the focus, without first having to check off a button on the lens that you want to focus manually.
The lens is not the brightest lens, but it is in its category. It can therefore be useful to buy an extra flash or a tripod if the conditions are not ideal.
In general, you will be surprised by this lens. You see the world through a completely different dimension. While the rest of the people had to stand several meters away to photograph just a part of the Colloseum, I could stand much closer and still photograph the whole scene. Note that due to its large range, details can sometimes disappear, objects appear smaller in the photo.
The only downside I can say is that it's shameful that Canon still doesn't realize that USM lenses are no longer cheap lenses and they can still send them with a lens hood.
I think the price is actually good for what you get! A lens like this is admittedly an investment, but it will travel with you for years and be worth more than itself! The only thing you have to keep in mind is that you can't use this lens on a FullFrame camera.
Even though this lens is actually intended for taking pictures of landscapes, buildings or other small spaces. It can certainly be fun to take a portrait with it (especially on the 10mm), you get a light fish-eye effect.

I am very satisfied with this wide angle lens. The quality is simply superb. As always with wide-angle lenses, there is distortion, but with this lens it only really stands out around 10mm. I can't think of this lens anymore.

After several months of shooting with my new 7D with 28-135 zoom lens, I came to the conclusion that this lens offers insufficient wide angle in certain situations. Especially when photographing landscapes and interior photography, 28 mm provides too little wide-angle range. After some research, reading reviews and a recommendation from a professional photographer, decided to purchase this lens. Tested this lens for a few weeks now and I like it incredibly well! Has a fantastic range and focuses quietly and silently. Shows cloudy skies incredibly. The distortion in the extremes is clearly visible but can certainly also be used positively for the creation of special effects. If necessary, it can also be perfectly updated afterwards. Very nice colors, very contrasting. The first results meanwhile show my fellow students – photography and nothing but praise. Finally, the lens is very solid in terms of execution, a pity that Canon does not supply a lens hood and you have to pay extra for this. Not a cheap lens but well worth the money. I would recommend to anyone. Also thanks to Coolblue for the super fast delivery and correct price setting.
