Canon 10-18mm V Sigma 10-20mm F3.5 ?

Hi all

I'm thinking about getting one of these lenses, either the Canon 10-18mm or the Sigma 10-20mm F3.5

Has any one used either or both of these lenses and if so could you comment on their experience while using it. I know what the technical differences between them are, so I'm after information on IQ and handling characteristics.

I like to make an informed choice before I part with any of my hard earned!

Thanks in advance

Doug

My mate has just sold his 10-18 and gone 10-20 and said how much better the siggy is!

I had the Canon 10-18mm, great little lens then I gave it to one of the members here.

I used a 10-20 on Nikon for 4 years, always liked it and got some good results.

I love my 10-18. Great IQ imo. Very light too. A few images I've taken with it...
